Oblique Pixel Units for Uniform Stereoscopic Resolution
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In stereoscopic display technology, the resolution of single-eye images decreases only in one direction, adversely affecting the viewing effect due to the fixed physical resolution of display panels and the arrangement of parallax images.
Innovation Solution
A display substrate with oblique pixel units, where the length directions of these units are angled relative to the horizontal direction, allowing for a more uniform decrease in resolution in both the length and width directions, achieved through the arrangement of oblique pixel units and supplementary units, and the use of zigzag gate and data lines to define these units.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple parallax images are displayed simultaneously on a display panel with fixed physical resolution, then the viewable region and stereoscopic effect are improved, but the resolution of single-eye images decreases in one direction, adversely affecting viewing quality
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies asymmetry by arranging pixel units in non-rectangular patterns (triangular, trapezoidal, or pentagonal configurations) rather than traditional rectangular grids. This asymmetric arrangement allows multiple parallax images to be distributed more evenly across the display panel, preventing resolution degradation in a single direction while maintaining stereoscopic display capability. The asymmetric pixel layout ensures that each eye receives sufficient resolution across both horizontal and vertical dimensions.
2Ease of manufacture
If the display panel uses traditional rectangular pixel arrangement, then manufacturing is simple, but the resolution of single-eye images decreases only in one direction when displaying multiple parallax images
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from traditional two-dimensional rectangular pixel arrangements to three-dimensional spatial configurations by introducing oblique or angled pixel orientations. This dimensional change allows the display to distribute pixel resources more effectively across multiple parallax images, maintaining resolution uniformity in both horizontal and vertical directions while still using standard manufacturing processes for creating the pixel structures.

AI summary
The present invention provides a display substrate including a plurality of pixel units. Wherein, the plurality of pixel units include a plurality of oblique pixel units, and length directions of the plurality of oblique pixel units are oblique relative to a horizontal direction. The present invention further provides a display panel and a stereoscopic display device. When stereoscopic display is performed using the display panel according to the present invention, the resolutions of each parallax image in both a length direction and a width direction of the display panel decrease, i.e., the problem that the resolution of a single-eye image decreasing only in one direction when stereoscopic display is performed is avoided, thereby improving the display effect.
