Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional 3D image display technologies require the use of 3D glasses, which cause discomfort and vision issues for users due to prolonged wear.
Innovation Solution
An image display method that generates and emits multiple target images from different viewing angles without the need for 3D glasses, using a light splitting element to enable 3D image display.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If polarized 3D display is used to generate 3D images, then 3D image display capability is achieved, but user comfort and vision health deteriorate due to prolonged 3D glasses wear
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and removes the 3D glasses component from the viewing system entirely. By using a light splitting element (grating screen) to directly separate light paths from the display, the system eliminates the need for polarized glasses, thereby removing the source of user discomfort and vision problems while maintaining 3D image display capability
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a light splitting element (grating screen) as an intermediary component between the display and the viewer's eyes. This intermediary element performs the light separation function that previously required polarized glasses, enabling 3D viewing without the harmful effects of prolonged glasses wear
2Reliability
If 3D glasses are required for viewing, then 3D image perception is achieved, but viewing convenience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent removes the 3D glasses requirement from the viewing process. By implementing a light splitting element directly in the display system, the solution extracts the auxiliary viewing device (glasses) and replaces it with an integrated optical solution, thereby dramatically improving viewing convenience
