A multi-view three-dimensional (3D) display provides a more realistic experience than a two-view 3D dis- play. Therefore, a multi-view 3D display with high brightness based on a parallax barrier is proposed. The parallax barrier in the 3D display has a gradient transmittance with enhanced frequency character- istic, which indicates that the aperture ratio of the parallax barrier can be increased, thereby improving brightness. Gradient transmittance is also helpful in reducing crosstalk. A prototype of the 3D display is developed. Experimental result shows that the 3D display has higher brightness than a conventional display. In addition, crosstalk is limited at a low level.
A crosstalk-free integral imaging display consisting of a display panel and double piano-convex micro-lens array is proposed. The double piano-convex micro-lens array includes two micro-lens arrays, A and B. Micro-lens array A is used to eliminate crosstalk by completely reflecting crosstalk lights. Micro-lens array B, located near microqens array A, is used to display three-dimensional images. Computer simulations based on ray-tracing are conducted. Crosstalk-free reconstruction images may be clearly observed from the simulation results.
