Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. provisional application 60 / 706,281 filed on Aug. 8, 2005, which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Most 3D display techniques developed to date are stereoscopic. A stereoscopic system may be realized that may display large images with high resolution, however stereoscopic techniques may require supplementary glasses to evoke 3-D visual effects. Additionally, stereoscopic techniques may provide observers with horizontal parallax and a small number of viewpoints. Observation of stereoscopic images may also cause visual fatigue due to convergence-accommodation conflict.

[0003] Convergence-accommodation conflict may be avoided by a true 3-D image formation in space with full parallax and continuous viewing points. Holography is one way to form 3-D images in space, but recording full-color holograms for an outdoor scene may be difficult. For example,...
