In one general aspect, a binocular anaglyph head mounted display (HMD) device can include a first monocular including a first display device and a first optical system. The first display device can be a single color display device configured to display image content on the first display device in a first color. The binocular anaglyph head mounted display (HMD) device can include a second monocular including a second display device and a second optical system. The second display device can be a two color display device configured to display image content on the second display device in a second color that is chromatically opposite to the first color.

A method and a display system for adjusting an output image of at least one of a first panel and a second panel are provided. The method includes obtaining a first output image for the first panel and a second output image for the second panel, determining a first calibration data applied to the first output image and not applicable to the second output image according to a first target information, and adjusting at least one of a luminance and a chromaticity of the first output image according to the first calibration data.

A multi-view display device is provided, and the multi-view display device at least comprises a projector, a first lens set, and a second lens set. The projector contains a scan-lamp image, and the projector slants an incident ray corresponding to the scan-lamp image with a first angle. The first lens set receives the slanted incident ray and refracts that. The second lens set is slanted with the first angle, and the second lens set receives the slanted incident ray which is refracted by the first lens set and refracts that again, so as to expand a view area of the multi-view display device.

An optical system for collecting distance information within a field is provided. The optical system may include lenses for collecting photons from a field and may include lenses for distributing photons to a field. The optical system may include lenses that collimate photons passed by an aperture, optical filters that reject normally incident light outside of the operating wavelength, and pixels that detect incident photons. The optical system may further include illumination sources that output photons at an operating wavelength.

A system and method are disclosed for exhibiting wide-screen motion pictures, including in multiplex-style theaters, with an immersive, picture-dominance effect not previously obtainable in such theaters. The invention uses a zero-gain or nominal-gain curved screen to accommodate a wide-screen presentation, and a digital projector capable of delivering 14 to 22 foot-lamberts of light to the screen. The invention can support any theatrical aspect ratio for presentation, including the widest in use, 2.76:1. To eliminate image distortion, the invention uses warping software to correct the image for the geometry of the auditorium and the shape of the screen. This correction is established for every aspect ratio that will be accommodated in the auditorium in which the invention is installed, and aspect ratios can be changed to display content with different aspect ratios during a program.

A head worn display system with at least one retinal display unit having a curved reflector positioned in front of one eye or both eyes of a wearer. The unit includes a first set of three modulated visible-light lasers co-aligned and adapted to provide a foveal laser beam with selectable color and a first scanner unit providing both horizontal and vertical scanning of the laser beam across a small portion of the curved reflector in directions so as to produce a reflection of the color laser beam through the pupil of the eye onto a portion of the retina large enough to encompass the fovea. The unit also includes a second set three modulated retinal visible-light lasers plus an infrared laser, all lasers being co-aligned and adapted to provide a color and infrared peripheral view laser beam, and a second scanner unit providing both horizontal and vertical scanning of the visible light and infrared laser beams across a portion of the curved reflector in directions so as to produce a reflection of the scanned color and infrared laser beams through the pupil of the eye onto a portion of retina corresponding to a field of view of at least 30 degrees×30 degrees.

Disclosed is a technology applicable to stereoscopic three-dimensional image content replaying. More particularly, a technology for alleviating user's discomfort, such as dizziness, or eye fatigue when using a stereoscopic three-dimensional display is disclosed. The apparatus for replaying content according to the present disclosure is at least temporarily by a computer and includes an operation unit that calculates a three-dimensional coordinate using gaze information obtained through gaze-tracking; an extraction unit that extracts a focal length corresponding to the calculated three-dimensional coordinate; and a processing unit that collects at least one of a perspective and a focus in a content for stereoscopic three-dimensional displays based on the calculated focal length.

A head mounted display includes a display unit that displays an image, and a processor that executes a process. The processor includes a polyhedron image display unit that displays a polyhedron image in which an instruction to instruct the process is allocated to each surface of the polyhedron, on the display unit, a polyhedron orientation switching unit that receives an operation on the polyhedron image, and switches the orientation in which the polyhedron is displayed, and an instruction execution unit that executes the instruction allocated to a surface of a predetermined orientation in the polyhedron image.

A personal 3D photographic and 3D video capture system includes multiple cameras separated in space using a rigid structure; a wired or wireless method to control the image or video acquisition for all cameras; a processing unit; a wired or wireless method to download the imagery and video to the processing unit; software to accurately align the imagery and video frames in space and time, combine the imagery and video into standard 3D formats and save the imagery and video into a file for later viewing.

A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a computer-readable storage medium having computer instructions to present a plurality of unassociated media programs from a single presentation device having overlapping presentation periods, and cause the single presentation device to present a user interface for one of the plurality of unassociated media programs responsive to detecting a request for the user interface. Each of the plurality of unassociated media programs can be viewable only with a viewing apparatus. The viewing apparatus can be configured for viewing one of the unassociated media programs at a time. Other embodiments are disclosed and contemplated.
