TELEPRESENCE THROUGH OTA VR BROADCAST STREAMS

Techniques are described for expanding and/or improving the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0 television protocol in robustly delivering the next generation broadcast television services. Telepresence is provided through over-the-air (OTA) virtual reality (VR) broadcast streams.

High dynamic range displays using filterless LCD(s) for increasing contrast and resolution

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.

An electronic device comprising: an acquisition unit configured to acquire an image set including a first image and a second image which have parallax from each other; and a control unit configured to perform control such that 1) in a case of a first display mode where the first image is to be displayed without displaying the second image, the first image is displayed on a display with an orientation of the first image being corrected to be directed to be in a predetermined orientation, and 2) in a case of a second display mode where both the first image and the second image are to be displayed, the first image and the second image are displayed on the display without an orientation of the first image and the second image being corrected to be directed to be in the predetermined orientation.

Image processing apparatus that performs processing concerning display of stereoscopic image, image processing method, and storage medium

An image processing apparatus that performs processing concerning the display of a stereoscopic image so as to improve the convenience of a user in viewing a stereoscopic image. A head mount display displays a stereoscopic image using image data including a plurality of images having different viewpoints. The image data is processed based on metadata attached to the image data. In a case where information indicating that the image data is associated with a file format which cannot cause the head mount display to perform display is included in the metadata, the image data is converted into a file format which can cause the head mount display to perform display.

Systems and methods are described for providing a display. In some embodiments, a display device includes a light-emitting layer with an addressable array of light-emitting elements such as OLEDs. A flexible optical layer overlays the light-emitting layer. The flexible optical layer has a plurality of lens regions, where optical powers of the lens regions change in response to changing levels of tensile or compressive force on the flexible optical layer. When no force is applied, the lens regions may have no optical power, and the display may operate as a 2D display. When force is applied (e.g. by bending the display), the lens regions may operate as cylindrical lenses in a lenticular array, and the display may be operated as a 3D multiview display.

Two dimensional to three dimensional moving image converter

The inventive method involves receiving as input a representation of an ordered set of two dimensional images. The ordered set of two dimensional images is analyzed to determine at least one first view of an object in at least two dimensions and at least one motion vector. The next step is analyzing the combination of the first view of the object in at least two dimensions, the motion vector, and the ordered set of two dimensional images to determine at least a second view of the object; generating a three dimensional representation of the ordered set of two dimensional images on the basis of at least the first view of the object and the second view of the object. Finally, the method involves providing indicia of the three dimensional representation as an output.
