The present disclosure relates to a telepresence system that enables better communication. The telepresence system includes: a network that connects a plurality of bases; and a plurality of telepresence apparatuses that transmit and receive video images and sound via the network, and share the video images and the audio between the respective bases. Further, in each of the telepresence apparatuses, a presentation device that performs presentation for prompting communication by users at different bases is disposed at the center of a shared communication space in which the users communicate with each other. The present technology can be applied to a telepresence system, for example.

A multiplexed light field projector device and a multiplexed light field display to output a light field image is described. The projector has a projector base with a projection optical system configured to output light rays to form a projected image, a collimating optical system configured for collimation of the projected image light rays to form a second projected image, which is directed to a display optical system to produce a light field image. Light field projector devices or alternative projector devices may be used individually or in combination with one or more other projectors which can be arranged to form a multiplexed direct projection light field display. The arrangement of projector devices may have an individual or shared display optical system.

An autostereoscopic display system includes a transmissive display panel including a backlight having an array of backlight pixels, a selectively-selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix having a first side facing the backlight and an opposing second side, the selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix comprising an array of display pixels, a first lenticular array disposed between the backlight and the first side of the selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix, and a second lenticular array disposed facing the second side of the selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix. The backlight is configured to separately activate different subsets of the backlight pixels such that light emitted from an activated subset of backlight pixels and transmitted through the first lenticular array, the selectively-transmissive display pixel matrix, and the second lenticular array is emitted by the display panel as display light in a corresponding separate direction relative to the display panel.

A videoconferencing system includes different cameras with different fields-of-view (FOVs). Frames of images acquired by these cameras may be processed to determine states, such as number of users present, talking, and so forth. Based on these states, frames from one camera may be selected to send to a far site. If the two states indicate no change in camera source from a first time to a second time, the current frame from the first camera that is sent to the far site is followed by another frame from the same camera. If the two states indicate a change in camera source from the first time to the second time, the current frame from the first camera that is sent to the far site is followed by a frame from the different camera. Depending on the two states and the cameras used, different transition effects may be applied to improve presentation.

A light projection system, including a light source to provide an output beam of light, an angular light modulator (ALM) comprising a plurality of pixels, each pixel having an ON state and an OFF state, the ALM positioned to receive output beam on the plurality of pixels, and a processor coupled to the ALM. The processor is programmed to control a first set of the pixels to transition between the OFF state and the ON state while the beam is incident on the pixels. An amount of light is selectively directed in a direction by the first set. The processor is also programmed to control a second set of the plurality of pixels to remain in the OFF state while the beam is incident on the plurality of pixels. As a result, the ALM operates as a spatial light modulator and an angular light modulator of the beam of light.
