An infrared polarizing filter is attached to an infrared synchronization signal radiator of a stereoscopic image display device which alternately displays right and left images by time-division with polarized light in one direction to radiate the polarized-light infrared synchronization signal. The problem with the occurrence of crosstalk is solved. Stereoscopic image appreciation eyeglasses have polarizing plates, visual field opening/closing liquid crystal cells and tilt correcting liquid crystal cells. The synchronization signal is received by a receiver mounted on an eyeglass frame. The tilt correcting liquid crystal cells are adjusted based on the eyeglass frame tilt angle detected.

Disclosed is a light guiding valve apparatus including an imaging directional backlight, an illuminator array and an observer tracking system arranged to achieve control of an array of illuminators which may provide a directional display to an observer over a wide lateral and longitudinal viewing range, wherein the number of optical windows presented to the observer as viewing windows is controlled dependent on the lateral and longitudinal position or speed of an observer.

A portable system providing augmented vision of surroundings. In one embodiment the system includes a helmet, a plurality of camera units and circuitry to generate a composite field of view from channels of video data. The helmet permits a user to receive a first field of view in the surroundings based on optical information received directly from the surroundings with the user's natural vision. The camera units are mounted about the helmet to generate the multiple channels of video data. Each camera channel captures a different field of view of a scene in a region surrounding the helmet.

An embodiment of a vision system wearable by a user provides enhanced awareness of activities in a surrounding scene. A helmet permits a direct view of portions of the scene with unaided, natural vision. System components include a processing and control unit, multiple cameras positioned along an outside surface of the helmet, sensors providing signals indicative of velocity or acceleration, and a pair of displays. Based on image frames derived from the cameras, the processing and control unit provides images for presentation on the displays based on programmably adjustable fields of view, enabling simultaneous viewing on the displays of selectable fields of view while the user continues to receive direct views of the scene with unaided, natural vision. In an embodiment of a related method, frames of video data from different fields of view are monitored for detection of a potential threat based on a criterion for classifying an object.
