Systems and methods presented herein include light field displays configured to display primary autostereoscopic images and to simultaneously project light rays toward display devices (e.g., either reflective devices or cameras) to display secondary autostereoscopic images via the display devices. The light rays projected from the light field displays are controlled by a control system based at least in part on positional tracking data (e.g., position, orientation, and/or movement) of the display devices and/or of a portion of humans associated with the display devices, which may be detected via sensors of the display devices and/or via cameras disposed about a physical environment within which the display devices and the humans are located. Specifically, the control system calculates light field vector functions for light rays to be projected toward each individual display device based at least in part on positional tracking data for that particular display device and/or its associated human.

Systems and methods presented herein include light field displays configured to display primary autostereoscopic images and to simultaneously project (e.g., in real time, while displaying their own primary autostereoscopic images) light rays toward display devices (e.g., either reflective devices or cameras) to display secondary autostereoscopic images via the display devices. The light rays projected from the light field displays are controlled by a control system based at least in part on positional data (e.g., position, orientation, and/or movement) of the display devices, which may be determined by the control system based at least in part on detection of light rays that are reflected off the display devices.

Some embodiments of an apparatus may include: a tracking module configured to track viewer movement adjustments; and a light field image display structure configured to display a light field image using the viewer movement adjustments. Some embodiments of a method may include: projecting a beam spot on a viewer of a light field display; determining an estimated location of the beam spot reflected off the viewer; detecting an actual location of the beam spot reflected off the viewer; and determining image correction parameters based on a comparison of the estimated location and the actual location of the beam spot reflected off the viewer.
