A method for the autostereoscopic representation of images on a display screen includes the steps of selecting a view mode from a plurality of pre-defined view modes; creating a channel mask that defines a number N of channels per segment of the optical plate, wherein N is larger than or equal to the number of views in the selected view mode; providing a texture for each of the N channels; correlating each screen pixel with at least one texture by reference to the channel mask; applying an allocation algorithm for allocating the total of the image information to be displayed at a time to at least two textures such that each texture includes the information for one view

The stereoscopic image display device which displays images corresponding to each of a plurality of viewpoints includes: a stereoscopic image display panel which includes a display panel in which a plurality of pixels are arranged and a light-ray separating module provided on the display panel for separating parallax images from each of the pixels towards a plurality of N-viewpoints (N is a natural number of 2 or larger) according to the layout direction of each of the pixels; an observer position measuring unit which measures an observing position of the observer who is facing the display surface; a relative position calculating unit which calculates a relative position of the observer with respect to the stereoscopic image display panel based on the measurement result; and an image generation processing unit which generates viewpoint image by corresponding to the relative position and outputs the image towards the stereoscopic image display panel.

A holographic display and method for operating the holographic display can include: a holographic display operable in a plurality of modes, a computing system, and a sensor. The holographic display can option include a user interface device. Views displayed by the display can optionally be processed or modified based on a viewer pose relative to the display.

Provided are a three-dimensional (3D) rendering method and apparatus that detect eye coordinates of positions of eyes of a user from an image of the user, adjust the eye coordinates to correspond to virtual eye positions that reduce crosstalk caused by refraction of light; and perform 3D rendering of the eyes based on the adjusted eye coordinates.

A configuration of a stereoscopic display device that is capable of maintaining crosstalk at a low level even when a viewer moves is provided. A stereoscopic display device (1) includes: a display panel (10) for displaying an image; a switch liquid crystal panel (20) that is arranged so as to be stacked on the display panel (10); a position sensor for acquiring position information of a viewer; and a control unit for moving a parallax barrier in which transmitting regions and non-transmitting regions are formed in periodic fashion in a predetermined alignment direction, in such a manner that the parallax barrier is moved in the predetermined alignment direction in accordance with the position information, and causing the switch liquid crystal panel (20) to display the parallax barrier. The switch liquid crystal panel (20) includes: a liquid crystal layer (23) in which refractive index anisotropy Δn of liquid crystal molecules is 0.14 or less; a first substrate (21) and a second substrate (22) that face each other with the liquid crystal layer (23) being interposed therebetween; and an electrode group including a plurality of electrodes that are formed on at least one of the first substrate (21) and the second substrate (22) and are arranged in the alignment direction.

According to one embodiment, a display device includes a switching liquid crystal unit, a display, and a controller. The switching liquid crystal unit includes optical elements switching an aperture pattern including an aperture portion and a light-shielding portion. The display overlaps the switching liquid crystal unit and displays parallax images including right and left eye images. The controller acquires positional information relating to a position of a viewer, and controls a position of the aperture pattern. The controller switches the aperture pattern from a first aperture pattern to a second aperture pattern so that a right eye always views the right eye image and a left eye always views the left eye image, and starts the switching before the viewer moves to an optimal switching position where a luminance viewed from the first aperture pattern is substantially equal to a luminance viewed from the second aperture patterns.

An apparatus and method for outputting view images by tracking a gaze of a user are provided. The image processing apparatus estimates movement of a gaze of a user using a camera, and determines an output order of view images according to the gaze movement.

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.
