34.3: Multi‐user 3D Film on Directional Sequential Backlight System

Abstract

Considering full resolution and without 3D glasses, timemultiplexed type is the better choice for 3D display, such as directional sequential backlight system. However, the current directional sequential backlight system can only produce a singleuser 3D display provided 3D image for single observer. Thus, the multi-user 3D film was proposed to add in front of the directional sequential backlight system and make the display become a multiuser (each observer watches the same image) 3D display provided full-resolution 3D images for three observers.

6.1: Autostereoscopic Display with a Multidirectional Backlight System and an Eye tracker

“…Autostereoscopic display based on directional backlight can deliver full-resolution images to each viewing zones sequentially, which significantly improves the 3D experience for observers. 3D prism film is widely used in the directional backlight-based autostereoscopic display [1][2][3]. Schultz et al [1] suggested a full-resolution autostereoscopic 3D display using a directional backlight with shallow prism structure, a 3D film with the top lenticular and bottom prismatic features, and an LCD panel.…”

Multi-Phase Convex Lens Array for Directional Backlights to Improve Luminance Distribution of Autostereoscopic Display

“…Basically they can display the stereoscopic image only to one viewer. Though there have been a few trials to increase the number of possible viewers [7], [8], the viewing position is still limited. One way to attain autostereoscopy with more viewpoints is to use a directional backlight composed of a large aperture convex lens and a dot-matrix backlight panel [10].…”
