Integral 3D display using multiple flat-panel displays

Abstract

A display device that has a large number of pixels is required to improve the image quality of integral three-dimensional (3D) images. However, no display elements currently have a greater number of pixels than an 8K display, so improving the quality of these integral 3D images is difficult using a single display device. Therefore, we have developed a method for seamlessly connecting the images of multiple displays and for improving the quality of the integral 3D images. In the previous prototype, the quality of the integral 3D images deteriorated when using a magnifying optical system having a complicated structure and a diffusion plate. This work describes an optical system for connecting multiple images while suppressing the deterioration in the quality of integral 3D images.
