In this letter, we propose a dual autostereoscopic display platform employing a natural interaction method, which will be useful for sharing visual data with users. To provide 3D visualization of a model to users who collaborate with each other, a beamsplitter is used with a pair of autostereoscopic displays, providing a visual illusion of a floating 3D image. To interact with the virtual object, we track the user's hands with a depth camera. The gesture recognition technique we use operates without any initialization process, such as specific poses or gestures, and supports several commands to control virtual objects by gesture recognition. Experiment results show that our system performs well in visualizing 3D models in real-time and handling them under unconstrained conditions, such as complicated backgrounds or a user wearing short sleeves.

We have developed a 3.1-inch diagonal 2D/3D LCD with a novel pixel arrangement, called HDDP (Horizontally Double-Density Pixels), for high-quality 3D images. We have improved 3D visibility by broadening the 3D viewing zone where high-quality images can be seen, and we propose optical characterization methods which can evaluate the high-visibility autostereoscopic displays correctly.

The relation between light sources and screen cells is considered part of the theoretical model of an autostereoscopic 3D display. The geometry of the image and observer regions is presented, including the cases of single and multiple regions. The characteristic function is introduced. Formulas for the geometric parameters are obtained, including areas and angles. Special attention is drawn to the screen location. The method of transforming the formulas between regions is stated. For multiple regions, geometric dissimilarity was found. This allows the model to be applied in finding the geometric characteristics of multiview and integral-imaging 3D displays.

We introduce a parallax barrier type autostereoscopic display in order to overcome the limited viewing angle of the conventional parallax barrier type displays. The proposed method adopts a special structure of double pairs of ITO that have a common TN-LC at the core of the conventional parallax barrier. Compared with the conventional parallax barrier type displays, the proposed display uses moving parallax barriers and eye tracking system to make stereoscopic view images adapted to the movement of viewer. We implemented a prototype of the proposed dual layer parallax barrier system, and verified that the proposed autostereoscopic display maintains seamless 3D views even when a viewer's head is moving.

Flat panel-based parallax barrier or lenticular based 3D display devices that have been developed recently are designed to feel depth. In order to see a three-dimensional(3D) image by the display device, a multi-view image displayed on the flat panel must be regenerated from images of multi-views using a subsampling method. Previous subsampling methods are focused on reducing crosstalk. In this paper, we focus on a misalignment that is occurred on manufacture process of slanted parallax barrier based autostereoscopic display device. Therefore, we propose a interleaving method that considers tilt of slanted parallax barrier, aperture size, and distance between an autostereoscopic display device and a viewer to see a 3D image regardless of a viewer position.

A multi-user autostereoscopic display based on laser scanning is described in this paper. It does not require the wearing of special glasses; it can provide 3D to several viewers who have a large degree of freedom of movement; and it requires the display of only a minimum amount of information. The display operates by providing regions in the viewing field, referred to as "exit pupils," which follow the positions of the viewers' eyes under the control of a multi-user head tracker. The display incorporates an RGB laser illumination source that illuminates a light engine. The light directions are controlled by a spatial light modulator, and a front screen assembly incorporates a novel Gabor superlens. Its operating principle is explained in this paper, as is the construction of three iterations of the display. Finally, a method of developing the display into one that is suitable for television applications is described.

In this paper, we proposed an autostereoscopic display simulator that calculates an extended intensity distribution of light emitted from respective light sources and reaching respective views in an observing area to an observing plane. It simulates intensity distribution in horizontal and vertical observing ranges from the predetermined observing plane and obtains an optimal viewing area image having quantities of light according to respective views based on the intensity distribution data. As a result of the simulation the proposed system enables guiding viewing comfort zone interactively.

We propose an analysis method of an autostereoscopic display system with lenticular lens array using finite ray-tracing method that is verified by the geometrical optics. In the present work, we adopt the cylinder equation for the mathematical expression of the lenticular lens. For the calculation of the direction cosine of the transmitted ray, we first calculate the refracting point at bottom of the lens and the direction cosine of the incident ray that propagating through the lens by the Snell's law, and then apply to finite ray-tracing method. Finally, we obtain the simulation results for the intensity distribution of the ray at optimal viewing distance. From these results, we confirm the realization of 3D image that exists separately according to the viewing position at an optimal viewing distance.

We have developed a 470 x 235ppi poly-Si TFT LCD with a novel pixel arrangement, called HDDP (Horizontally Double-Density Pixels), for high-resolution 2D and 3D autostereoscopic display. 3D image quality is especially high in a lenticular-lens-equipped 3D mode because both horizontal resolution and vertical resolution are high, and because these resolutions are equal. 3D and 2D images can be displayed simultaneously in the same picture. In addition, 3D images can be displayed anywhere and 2D characters can be made to appear at different depths with perfect legibility. No switching of 2D/3D modes is necessary, and the design's thin and uncomplicated structure makes it especially suitable for mobile terminals.
