Problems solved by technology

Undesirably, such displays exhibit image flickering when the observer moves laterally relative to the display, thus limiting the viewing freedom of the display
Such flicker can be reduced by defocusing the optics; however, such defocusing can result in increased levels of image crosstalk and increased observer fatigue
Such flicker can be reduced by adjusting the shape of the pixel holes, however, such changes can reduce display brightness and can include addressing the electronics in the spatial light modulator

Embodiment Construction

[0115] A time multiplexed autostereoscopic display can be advantageously achieved by directing light from all pixels of the spatial light modulator to a first viewing window in a first time slot and directing light from all pixels to a second viewing window in a second time slot. Two viewing windows improve the spatial resolution of the autostereoscopic display. Thus, an observer whose eyes are arranged to receive light in the first viewing window and the second viewing window will see a full resolution image across the entire display over multiple time slots. Time multiplexed displays can advantageously achieve directional illumination by directing an array of illuminators through a substantially transparent time multiplexed spatial light modulator using directional optics that are substantially in the plane of the window An image of an array of illuminators is formed.

[0116] The uniformity of the viewing window may advantageously be independent of the arrangement of the p...

Abstract

A directional display may include a waveguide. The waveguide may include light extraction features arranged to direct light from an array of light sources by total internal reflection to an array of viewing windows and a reflector arranged to direct light from the waveguide by transmission through extraction features of the waveguide to the same array of viewing windows. The brightness of the directional display can be increased. An efficient and bright autostereoscopic display system can be achieved.
