Full-parallax 360 degrees horizontal viewingintegral imaging using anamorphic optics

摘要

We propose full-parallax integral imaging display with 360 degree horizontal viewing angle. Two-dimensional (2D) elemental images are projected by a high-speed DMD projector and integrated into three-dimensional (3D) image by a lens array. The anamorphic optic system tailors the horizontal and vertical viewing angles of the integrated 3D images in order to obtain high angular ray density in horizontal direction and large viewing angle in vertical direction. Finally, the mirror screen that rotates in synchronization with the DMD projector presents the integrated 3D images to desired direction accordingly. Full-parallax and 360 degree horizontal viewing angle 3D images with both of monocular and binocular depth cues can be achieved by the proposed method.
