A display provides increased contrast and resolution via first LCD panel energized to generate an image and a second LCD panel configured to increase contrast of the image. The second panel is an LCD panel without color filters and is configured to increase contrast by decreasing black levels of dark portions of images using polarization rotation and filtration. The second LCD panel may have higher resolution than the first LCD panel. A half wave plate and/or film is placed in between the first and the second panel. The panels may be directly illuminated or edge lit, and may be globally or locally dimmed lights that may also include individual control of color intensities for each image or frame displayed.

A virtual fish tank assembly for displaying three dimensional aquatic creatures includes a housing structure. The housing structure is positioned adjacent to a fish tank. A projector is coupled to an interior space of housing structure. A control module is in electric communication with the projector. The control module obtains data from a user, reads the data, and generates a plurality of three dimensional images. A power source is in electric communication with the projector and with the control module. The power source provides power to the projector and to the control module. A screen has a peripheral surface and a back surface. The peripheral surface attaches to a respective one wall of the plurality of walls of the fish tank. The screen displays the three dimensional figures projected from the projector to give the appearance of the figures being within the fish tank.

In one embodiment, the system may determine an estimated distance of an eye of a user to a display plane of a display. The system may access, from a memory storage, a number of transmission maps characterizing non-uniform transmission characters of the display as measured from a number of pre-determined view positions within a measurement plane. The measurement plane may be separated from the display plane by a known distance. The system may generate a custom transmission map for the estimated distance of the eye based on the transmission maps using light field rendering. The system may determine a custom correction map based on the custom transmission map. The system may adjust an image to be displayed on the display using the custom correction map. The system may display the image adjusted using the custom correction map on the display.

A virtual object display system includes a plurality of head-mounted displays 1 each having a virtual object acquisition unit 22 that acquires a virtual object, a display information acquisition unit 23 that acquires display information used to display the virtual object, and a display control unit 24 that causes a display unit to display the virtual object on the basis of the display information, and enables switching between of first display control for causing the virtual object to be displayed on the basis of display information acquired by each of the plurality of head-mounted displays 1 and second display control for causing the virtual object having an identical orientation to an orientation of the virtual object displayed on the basis of display information acquired by another head-mounted display 1 to be displayed.

An information processing apparatus configured to paste a full-spherical panoramic image along an inner wall of a virtual three-dimensional sphere; calculate an arrangement position for arranging a planar image closer to a center point of the virtual three-dimensional sphere than the inner wall, in such an orientation that a line-of-sight direction from the center point to the inner wall and a perpendicular line of the planar image are parallel to each other, the planar image being obtained by pasting an embedding image to be embedded in the full-spherical panoramic image, on a two-dimensional plane; and display a display image on a display unit. The display image is a two-dimensional image viewed from the center point in the line-of-sight direction in a state in which the full-spherical panoramic image is pasted along the inner wall of the virtual three-dimensional sphere and the planar image is arranged at an arrangement position.

An electronic device includes a communicator configured to perform communication with an external device, a display configured to display a UI (User Interface) element in a screen, and a processor. The processor receives through the communicator, touch panel information of the external device and first data according to a first input of a user detected on the touch panel of the external device, and changes a location of the UI element displayed on the screen based on the touch panel information and the first data.

A virtual or augmented reality display system can include a first sensor to provide measurements of a user's head pose over time and a processor to estimate the user's head pose based on at least one head pose measurement and based on at least one calculated predicted head pose. The processor can combine the head pose measurement and the predicted head pose using one or more gain factors. The one or more gain factors may vary based upon the user's head pose position within a physiological range of movement.

A first input unit in a head-up display obtains a distance to an object. A second input unit obtains a user's eye position. An optical system projects, into the user's field of view, a virtual image of an image displayed on a display panel. A processor causes the display panel to display a parallax image. An optical element causes a first image displayed on the display panel to reach the user's first eye and a second image on the display panel to reach the user's second eye. The processor causes the display panel to display an image element in the parallax image as at least partially superimposed on the object. The processor performs first control to fix, in response to the distance to the object greater than or equal to a predetermined first distance, parallax of the image element to a value other than 0 corresponding to the first distance.

A head-up display is mountable on a movable body, and includes a first display panel, a reflective optical element, and an optical member. The first display panel displays a first image. The reflective optical element at least partially reflects image light from the first image displayed by the first display panel toward a user of the movable body. The optical member is between the display panel and the reflective optical element and is light transmissive. The display panel includes a surface facing a surface of the optical member. Each of the surface of the display panel and the surface of the optical member includes a reflection reduction layer to reduce light reflection.

A field sequential display comprises: a multi-viewpoint 3D display screen, comprising a plurality of composite pixels, wherein each composite pixel in the plurality of composite pixels comprises a plurality of pixels corresponding to a plurality of viewpoints of the field sequential display; a light source device, comprising a plurality of monochromatic light sources; a light source time sequence controller, configured to control turn-on time and turn-off time of the plurality of monochromatic light sources; and a 3D processing device, which is in communication connection with the light source time sequence controller and the multi-viewpoint 3D display screen, and is configured to enable the light source time sequence controller to switch and turn on at least part of monochromatic light sources in the plurality of monochromatic light sources in a time sequence manner, so as to render corresponding pixels in each composite pixel in the multi-viewpoint 3D display screen.
