A three-dimensional display, wherein an area in which eyes of observers are to be positioned when the observers observe a three-dimensional image is predefined as a viewing area, the viewing area is defined to be circular and surround a light ray controller at a position farther upward than a top board of a table, a light ray group is emitted to an outer peripheral surface of the light ray controller from a light ray generator arranged below the top board, and the light ray controller is formed such that the plurality of light rays emitted to a plurality of portions that are different from one another and arranged in a ridge line direction are transmitted through the plurality of portions while respectively being diffused in a virtual plane, and is formed such that center lines of a plurality of transmitted diffused light rays pass through the viewing area.

In first and second display devices that are provided in a pair on the left and right sides, image light and external light are superimposed on each other and viewed. In this case, a parallax of an angle (the value of angle) is set by a frame unit functioning as a parallax setting unit tilting principal rays of left and right image light inwardly, and the angle of convergence of an observer is in an appropriate state in the case of viewing the image light.

An apparatus comprising an electromagnetic radiation source communicably coupled to a control system and a three dimensional (3D) image projector for outputting a plurality of image signals representative of a subject, the control system being configured to cause electromagnetic radiation to be applied to a plurality of sets of selected three-dimensional portions of a gaseous volume so as to heat and/or ionize the gas within selected portions, wherein each set of selected three-dimensional portions of gaseous volume intersects a path of a respective one of image signals, and wherein selected portions of each of set are spatially located together in a substantially unbroken three-dimensional configuration and selectable orientated and configured to simulate an electromagnetic radiation path modifying element for directing a respective image signals incident thereon to a selected location within a viewing region.

An apparatus for generating a display medium includes a medium generating module arranged to selectively generate at least one portion of the display medium within a predetermined three-dimensional space, wherein the at least one portion of the display medium is arranged to receive an optical signal representing a visible image so as to display a portion or whole visible image within the predetermined three-dimensional space.

A holographic three dimensional imaging projecting medical apparatus is provided, including: a three dimensional imaging device, having a projecting mechanism and an image forming mechanism, the projecting mechanism including a housing and a projecting unit, the projecting unit projecting a plurality of projected images through the housing to the image forming mechanism, to form a three dimensional image within an image forming space of the image forming mechanism, the housing having a plurality of reflection portions, each of the plurality of reflection portions having a through hole and a plurality of light reflecting sheets disposed around the through hole, the projecting unit attached to the housing; a motion detector, detecting an operating gesture and generating a control signal corresponding to the operating gesture; and a processor, receiving the control signal and controlling the three dimensional image according to the control signal.

A system for displaying one or more images in three dimensions. The system has a three dimensional illumination volume containing a gas that emits one or more types of visible light when at certain multi-photon excited states. The system includes lasers (e.g. lasers with beams outside of the visible wavelengths) that can be directed to intersect in the illumination volume to excite particles of the gas to a multi-photon excited state to emit visible light. Scanning the beam intersection (or multiple beam intersections) through the illumination volume generates three dimensional images.

The present disclosure provides a display system that may comprise a retro-reflective screen configured to reflect incident light along a direction that is opposite to the direction of propagation of the incident light, and a projector that may project light characterizing an image or video to the retro-reflective screen. An array of optical elements or an individual optical element may be positioned between the retro-reflective screen and the projector. The array of optical elements or individual optical element may direct the light from the projector to the retro-reflective screen in a manner such that the image or video is viewable by a user at an observation angle of at least about 2 degrees.
