    摘要: A stereoscopic image apparatus that is capable of minimizing loss of optical energy and improving quality of a stereoscopic image is disclosed. The stereoscopic image apparatus includes a polarizing beam splitter to reflect or transmit incident light based on polarization components of the light to split the light in at least three different directions, a reflective member to reflect the light reflected by the polarizing beam splitter to a screen, at least one modulator to modulate the light reflected by the reflective member and the light transmitted through the polarizing beam splitter, and a refractive member disposed in an advancing direction of light to be incident upon the polarizing beam splitter to refract the light to be incident upon the polarizing beam splitter.

    摘要: A polarization conversion system separates light from an unpolarized image source into a first state of polarization (SOP) and an orthogonal second SOP, and directs the polarized light on first and second light paths. The SOP of light on only one of the light paths is transformed to an orthogonal state such that both light paths have the same SOP. A polarization modulator temporally modulates the light on the first and second light paths to first and second output states of polarization. First and second projection lenses direct light on the first and second light paths toward a projection screen to form substantially overlapping polarization encoded images. The polarization modulator may be located before or after the projection lenses. The polarization-encoded images may be viewed using eyewear with appropriate polarization filters.

    摘要: Proposed is a stereoscopic image screening device. The stereoscopic image screening device comprising: a polarized light splitter for spatially splitting and emitting an image light emitted from a projector into transmitted light and one or more reflected lights according to polarization components; a first modulator for emitting the transmitted light on a screen by performing modulation in a way allowing different polarizations as the transmitted light is alternately emitted as a left image or a right image in a time-division scheme; and a second modulator for emitting the reflected light on the screen by performing modulation in a way allowing different polarizations as the reflected light is alternately emitted to a left image or a right image in a time-division scheme, wherein the first modulator and the second modulator are set in a manner that the phase delay of the first modulator is any one of 0λ and ½λ, and the phase delay of the second modulator is the other one of 0λ and ½λ at a specific point of time.

    摘要: First and second spatial frame regions are identified in a sequence of motion picture image frames captured at a high frame rate. Different motion blur parameters are determined for each of the first and second spatial frame regions. First and second intermediate frame sequences having frame rates less than the capture frame rate are generated from the original frame sequence. The first motion blur parameter is applied to the first intermediate frame sequence and the second motion blur parameter is applied to the second intermediate frame sequence. The first and second spatial frame regions in the corresponding first and second intermediate frame sequences are composited to produce an output frame sequence having different motion blur in different regions of the scene.

    摘要: A stiffening strip at selected edges of a screen may enable the use and mounting of a high-elastic modulus substrate screen material. Such screen materials may be engineered to provide polarization-preserving characteristics, and be applied to or part of the high-elastic modulus substrate. Furthermore, the stiffening strip may enable the use of screen vibration techniques to reduce speckle in display applications that use projection screens, particularly those display applications using illumination sources prone to speckle such as laser-based projection. The screen vibration may be provided by a vibrating device attached to the stiffening strip.

    摘要: Display devices with high dynamic ranges approaching the limitations of the human eye are discussed herein. High dynamic range projections systems may be 2D or 3D and devices may or may not be implemented with polarization preserving optics for high efficiency. In one embodiment, 2D HDR projection systems may compensate the modulator for varying transmission and contrast versus field of view. In another embodiment, 3D HDR projection systems may include a global or pixelated/segmented modulator. The global or pixelated/segmented modulator may be included in a stereoscopic polarization switch or in a polarization-preserving stereoscopic projection system. Additionally, a combination of global/global or pixelated/pixelated, or global/pixelated modulators may be used.

    摘要: Curved polarization filters and methods of manufacturing such filters are described in the present disclosure. An exemplary method includes laminating a planar polarization layer to a planar retarder layer at a predetermined orientation and bending the laminate to create a curved filter. The strain on the retarder layer results in stress-induced birefringence, and the predetermined orientation of the retarder substantially compensates for the stress-induced birefringence. In some embodiments, the predetermination is based on mathematical models. In some other embodiment, the predetermination is based on experimental data.
