MULTIVIEW DISPLAY AND METHOD WITH DYNAMICALLY RECONFIGURABLE MULTIVIEW PIXELS

摘要

A multiview display employs an array of multibeam elements configured to provide directional light beams having different principal angular directions corresponding to different view directions of the multiview display. Moreover, the multiview display includes an array of light valves configured to modulate the directional light beams as a multiview image to be displayed by the multiview display, where a multiview pixel of the multiview display includes a set of light valves of the light valve array corresponding to a multibeam element of the multibeam element plurality and being configured to modulate directional light beams from the multibeam element. Furthermore, a shape of the multiview pixel is dynamically reconfigurable to provide the multiview image having a dynamic field of view (FOV). The FOV may be modified based on a monitored orientation of the multiview display, a monitored position of a user relative to the multiview display, or both.
