METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISPLAYING THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS
A system for displaying three-dimensional objects using two-dimensional visualization means simultaneously providing at least effects of binocular parallax and motion parallax, the system comprising: a display configured to display a sequence of images; a pair of glasses configured to provide stereoscopic separation of images, the glasses comprising at least two optical shutters and at least two markers; two optical sensor arrays; two reading and processing devices configured to read data from an area of the optical sensor array and to determine 2D coordinates of the markers; a marker coordinates prediction device configured to extrapolate coordinates of the markers so as effective overall delay does not exceed 5 ms; a marker 3D coordinates calculation device; a 3D scene formation device; and at least one image output device. The invention also includes a corresponding method of displaying three-dimensional objects and provides realistic representation of three-dimensional objects for one or more viewers.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRESENTING IMAGE CONTENT ON MULTIPLE DEPTH PLANES BY PROVIDING MULTIPLE INTRA-PUPIL PARALLAX VIEWS
An augmented reality display system is configured to direct a plurality of parallactically-disparate intra-pupil images into a viewer's eye. The parallactically-disparate intra-pupil images provide different parallax views of a virtual object, and impinge on the pupil from different angles. In the aggregate, the wavefronts of light forming the images approximate a continuous divergent wavefront and provide selectable accommodation cues for the user, depending on the amount of parallax disparity between the intra-pupil images. The amount of parallax disparity is selected using a light source that outputs light for different images from different locations, with spatial differences in the locations of the light output providing differences in the paths that the light takes to the eye, which in turn provide different amounts of parallax disparity. Advantageously, the wavefront divergence, and the accommodation cue provided to the eye of the user, may be varied by appropriate selection of parallax disparity, which may be set by selecting the amount of spatial separation between the locations of light output.

Method and apparatus for photographing and projecting moving images in three dimensions
A digital cinematographic and projection process that provides 3D stereoscopic imagery that is not adversely affected by the standard frame rate of 24 frames per second, as is the convention in the motion picture industry worldwide. A method for photographing and projecting moving images in three dimensions includes recording a moving image with a first and a second camera simultaneously and interleaving a plurality of frames recorded by the first camera with a plurality of frames recorded by the second camera. The step of interleaving includes retaining odd numbered frames recorded by the first camera and deleting the even numbered frames, retaining even numbered frames recorded by the second camera and deleting the odd numbered frames, and creating an image sequence by alternating the retained images from the first and second camera.
HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF
A head mounted display includes: a display configured to display an image; a shutter configured to block light incident on an eye; a controller configured to control the display to display a left eye image and a right eye image using half or more of a region of the display in a horizontal direction and to control the shutter based on the image displayed on the display; and a lens configured to focus light output from the display such that the left eye image and the right eye image displayed on the display are viewed by a left eye and a right eye respectively.
Eyewear device for transmitting signal and communication method thereof
The invention provides an eyewear device for transmitting a signal and a communication method thereof. The eyewear device comprises a receiving unit, a shutter and a transmitting unit. For example, the receiving unit is capable of receiving a synchronization signal, and the shutter performs an operation in response to the synchronization signal. Meanwhile, the transmitting unit transmits the synchronization signal to another eyewear device. By this way, each eyewear device is capable of receiving the synchronization signal, and re-transmits the synchronization signal to another eyewear device.
3D display driving method and 3D glasses driving method
A 3D display driving method and a 3D glasses driving method are provided. In the 3D display driving method, after a left-eye image and a right-eye image in a stereoscopic image pair of each frame are displayed, one frame of buffer image is inserted, then a left-eye image and a right-eye image in a stereoscopic image pair of a next frame are displayed. By inserting one frame of buffer image between two consecutive frames of left-eye and right-eye image pairs, the dizziness and blurring feeling generated due to the visual persistence characteristics of the human eyes when the human brain processes different image pairs are relieved.

With the present invention, wire impedance in the display panel is reduced, charging time for a single row of pixels can be reduced and charging rate of the pixels can be improved.
HEAD-UP DISPLAY WITH MULTIPLEXED MICROPROJECTOR
A head-up display system comprises a microprojector, first and second viewer optics, a redirection optic, and an electronic controller. Switchable electronically between first and second optical states, the redirection optic is configured to receive a display image from the microprojector, to convey the display image, in the first optical state, to the first viewer optic, and to convey the display image, in the second optical state, to the second viewer optic. The electronic controller is configured to, during a first interval, switch and maintain the redirection optic in the first optical state and cause the microprojector to form the display image based on first image data. The electronic controller is further configured to, during a second interval, switch and maintain the redirection optic in the second optical state and cause the microprojector to form the display image based on second image data.
