This paper proposes an enhanced integral imaging system with an electrically controllable image plane to address the issue of the limited depth problem in integral imaging. For implementation of the variable image plane, a varifocal liquid lens array and driving device are adopted instead of an ordinary solid lens array. The position of the central depth plane is varied by adjusting the focal length of the lens array. The proposed system enables matching between the object position and depth plane electrically, and thus an object moving from 5.15 to 11.72 cm is clearly displayed with this method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
