A holographic reality system and multiview display monitor a user position and provide virtual haptic feedback to the user. The holographic reality system includes a multiview display configured to display a multiview image, a position sensor configured to monitor the user position, and a virtual haptic feedback unit configured to provide the virtual haptic feedback. An extent of the virtual haptic feedback corresponds to an extent of a virtual control within the multiview image. The holographic reality multiview display includes an array of multiview pixels configured to provide different views of the multiview image by modulating directional light beams having directions corresponding to the different views and an array of multibeam elements configured to provide the directional light beams to corresponding multiview pixels.

A stereoscopic display, including a display panel and a lenticular plate is provided. The display panel has multiple pixels arranged in an array. The lenticular plate has multiple lenticulars. Each of the lenticulars extends along an extending direction, and the lenticulars are arranged along a periodical direction. The pixels are divided into multiple group. The lenticular plate transmits lights emitted by the pixels of different groups towards multiple different viewing zones, so as to form a stereoscopic vision. In the periodical direction, a pitch of the pixels of the same group is greater than a pitch of the lenticulars.

An image display apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a plurality of projection units, a screen, and an image generation unit. The plurality of projection units projects image light corresponding to image data with reference to projection axes thereof and is disposed such that the projection axes face in directions different from each other along a first plane. The screen is disposed to intersect with the first plane at a first elevation angle (φ.sub.i) and diffuses and outputs the image light projected along the first plane at a second elevation angle (φ.sub.o) different from the first elevation angle (φ.sub.i). The image generation unit generates the image data for displaying a plurality of viewpoint images corresponding to viewpoints at which the screen is observed at the second elevation angle (φ.sub.o) on the basis of the directions of the projection axes on the first plane.

An autostereoscopic display system includes a transmissive display panel including a backlight having an array of backlight pixels, a selectively-selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix having a first side facing the backlight and an opposing second side, the selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix comprising an array of display pixels, a first lenticular array disposed between the backlight and the first side of the selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix, and a second lenticular array disposed facing the second side of the selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix. The backlight is configured to separately activate different subsets of the backlight pixels such that light emitted from an activated subset of backlight pixels and transmitted through the first lenticular array, the selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix, and the second lenticular array is emitted by the display panel as display light in a corresponding separate direction relative to the display panel.

An animated static display, animated static display system, and method provide a plurality of static images. The animated static display includes a plurality of directional scattering elements arranged across a light guide and configured to scatter out light provided from different light sources and guided by the light guide as directional light beams having different directions corresponding to the different light sources. The animated static display also includes a barrier layer having different sets of apertures configured to pass directional light beams having the different directions to provide corresponding different static images of the static image plurality. The animated static display system further includes a mode controller configured to selectively activate the different light sources to provide an animated image comprising the different static images.
