A system configured to display autostereoscopic video (AV) may determine a depth setting for displaying the AV based on at least one of user parameters or device parameters, and may proceed to display the AV on a display based on the depth setting. In one embodiment the system may try to obtain user parameters before relying on device parameters. User parameters may be available from user profiles. For example, facial recognition may be used to determine if a user profile exists for a user. If a user profile is determined not to exist for the user, then the system may sense a distance from the display to the viewer, and may proceed to determine the depth setting based on the distance and device characteristics. Device characteristics may identify the manufacturer/model of the system, the type/size of display on which the AV will be viewed, the abilities of the system, etc.

A three-dimensional image system includes a monitor that displays an image signal as an image for three-dimensional observation, glasses for three-dimensional observation for observing, as a three-dimensional image, the image for three-dimensional observation displayed on a display section of the monitor, a storing section that is provided in the glasses for three-dimensional observation and stores an image parameter correction value for three-dimensional observation for correcting image parameters for three-dimensional observation for giving a cubic effect of the image for three-dimensional observation displayed on the display section, a scanning section that scans the glasses for three-dimensional observation in order to read information stored in the storing section, and a control section that performs control to set, according to a scanning result of the scanning section, the image parameter correction value for three-dimensional observation in the monitor.

Systems and methods are disclosed for generating stereoscopic images for a user based on one or more images captured by one or more scene-facing cameras or detectors and the position of the user's eyes or other parts relative to a component of the system as determined from one or more images captured by one or more user-facing detectors. The image captured by the scene-facing detector is modified based on the user's eye or other position. The resulting image represents the scene as seen from the perspective of the eye of the user. The resulting image may be further modified by augmenting the image with additional images, graphics, or other data. Stereoscopic mechanisms may also be adjusted or configured based on the location or the user's eyes or other parts.

According to one embodiment, a display device includes a display unit which displays an image, a barrier unit including a plurality of barrier regions, each of the barrier regions including two nontransmissive regions which block light transmitted from the display unit and one transmissive region which is arranged between the two nontransmissive regions and allows light transmitted from the display unit to pass through, and a control unit. The control unit controls the barrier pitch of the barrier regions, according to viewer's position. Further, the control unit controls each of edge-units constituting the transmissive region into a state of transmissive or nontransmissive.

The display device includes a display panel on which sub-pixel pairs are arranged in a lateral direction, and a parallax barrier shutter panel on which sub-openings that can be changed between a light transmittance state and a light-shielding state are arranged in a lateral direction. Arbitrary allocated number of adjacent sub-openings among the plural sub-openings belonging to a reference parallax barrier pitch are put into a light transmittance state, and the remaining sub-openings are put into a light-shielding state, so that a general opening is formed on the parallax barrier shutter panel. A sub-opening pitch of the sub-opening on the boundary part between the adjacent common driving areas is different from the sub-opening pitch of the other sub-openings.

A stereoscopic video playback device is provided that processes original stereoscopic image pairs taken using parallel-axis cameras and provided for viewing under original viewing conditions by scaling and cropping to provide new viewing condition stereoscopic video on a single screen.

The present disclosure discloses a three-dimensional display system, comprising a display device and a barrier located at the light emergent side of the display device. Addition of the distance adjusting structure, which adjusts the viewing distance of the three-dimensional display system by adjusting the distance between the display device and the barrier, between the display device and the barrier allows the three-dimensional display system free from limitation of a fixed viewing distance, thus resulting in a stronger spatially adapting capability and a broader application scope thereof.

A stereoscopic image display device includes: a display panel including a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix format; and a viewpoint division unit dividing light of a left-eye image and light of a right-eye image displayed by the plurality of dots and transferring the divided light to a plurality of viewpoints corresponding to each dot, wherein the viewpoint division unit includes a plurality of openings and a light blocking unit, and when a horizontal directional width of each of the plurality of openings corresponds to an m number of dots (m is a natural number), a number dots of n adjacent in the horizontal direction displaying the left-eye image and the right-eye image is equal to n=2m+1 or n=2(m+1).

A display apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a display unit formed with a lens being arranged for a plurality of adjoining pixels including a left-eye pixel and a right-eye pixel, as a unit, a detection unit attached to the display unit and configured to detect positional information and orientation information of an eye of an observer with respect to a display surface of the display unit, a signal processing unit configured to generate virtual image information for each of the left-eye pixel and the right-eye pixel so as to present a virtual image in an aspect ratio different from the aspect ratio of the display surface of the display unit on the basis of a result of detection obtained by the detection unit, and a display control unit configured to drive the left-eye pixel and the right-eye pixel on the basis of the virtual image information generated by the signal processing unit.

The present disclosure provides a grating including: a first substrate including stacked first and second electrode layers each including strip-shaped electrodes with an identical width, strip-shaped electrodes in the first and second electrode layers arranged alternately; a second substrate opposite to the first substrate with a liquid crystal layer therebetween; driving modules for driving the strip-shaped electrodes to form light shading parts and light transmission parts, one light shading part and one adjacent light transmission part defining a grating unit, at least one grating unit defining a grating part, the driving modules arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the grating parts; and a control module for generating driving signals in one-to-one correspondence with the driving modules according to a distance between the human eyes and the grating, thereby changing a width of the grating unit corresponding to a crosstalk position. A 3D display device and a grating driving method are provided.
