Viewing of different full-screen television content by different viewers at the same time using configured glasses and a related display

摘要

Different full screen content is displayed on the same television at the same time from the perspective of the viewer by displaying as the content as two full screen sequential frames. The different full screen content may be provided as a single combined frame signal such as a side-by-side, top-bottom, or checkerboard signal which is then displayed as two sequential full screen frames. Configured glasses such as polarized or shutter are used to view the different content as full screen content where one pair of configured glasses views an initial one of the sequential frames but blocks the subsequent one and another pair of configured glasses blocks the initial one of the sequential frames and views the subsequent one. Shutter glasses have both lenses open during the initial frame and both closed during the subsequent one. For polarized glasses, the initial frame has a polarization matching both lenses of one pair of glasses while the subsequent frame has a polarization that differs from both lenses.
