Project Details
- "In this display, observers can freely change position, rotate their heads, and maintain a true stereoscopic view without using special eyewear. Since no fixed parallax barrier geometry could accommodate arbitrary observer position and orientation, the system creates a dynamically varying parallax barrier that continually changes the width and positions of its stripes as the observer moves."
- "Large stripes would be easily seen by the unaided eye, so the system rapidly animates them in a lateral direction. Each stripe is composed from some number of very slender microstripes, each of which is a switchable LCD element. The result: a stereoscopic display that is continually exact for one moving user, as long as their eye position is tracked."
