Three-dimensional (3D) projection display is an effective approach to realize large size 3D images with high resolution. An autostereoscopic 3D projection display is proposed. It consists of four projectors, a projection screen, a lenticular sheet and a parallax barrier. Operation principle and calculation equations are described in details and the parallax images are corrected by the means of homography. A 50-inch autostereoscopic 3D projection display prototype is developed and it presents good stereoscopic images. The normalized luminance distributions of the viewing zones are measured, and the results agree well with the designed values. Compared with the conventional autostereoscopic 3D projection display based on two parallax barriers, the proposed prototype has much higher brightness.Index Terms-Autostereoscopic display, homography, 3D projection display.
An autostereoscopic three-dimensional (3D) display composed of a flat-panel display, two parallax barriers, and a backlight panel is proposed. Parallax barrier 1, located between the backlight panel and the flat-panel display, divides the lights to create the perception of stereoscopic images. Parallax barrier 2, located between the flat-panel display and the viewers, acts as the function of decreasing the cross talk of the stereoscopic images. The operation principle of the display and the calculation equations for the parallax barriers are described in detail. An autostereoscopic 3D display prototype is developed. The prototype presents high-quality stereoscopic images. At the optimal viewing distance, it presents stereoscopic images without cross talk. At other viewing distances, it has less cross talk than a conventional autostereoscopic 3D display based on one parallax.
Abstract— An autostereoscopic liquid‐crystal display (LCD) consists of two parallax barriers and an LCD including a liquid‐crystal panel, and a backlight panel is proposed. Parallax barrier 1 is located between the backlight panel and the liquid‐crystal panel, and Parallax barrier 2 is located between the liquid‐crystal panel and viewers. The operation principle of the autostereoscopic display and the calculation equations for the parallax barriers are described in detail. The autostereoscopic LCD was developed and produces high‐quality stereoscopic images without cross‐talk at the optimal viewing distance and less cross‐talk than a conventional one based on one parallax barrier at other viewing distances.
