A 3D display device includes: a data processor configured to generate at least one frame by combining a left-eye image and a right-eye image; a panel including pixels, each of the pixels including three sub pixels; a barrier configured to form a light blocking region and a light transmitting region on the panel on a basis of two sub pixel units; and a controller configured to control the data processor to generate the at least one frame by placing the left-eye image and the right-eye image alternately on the basis of two sub pixels, and to control the panel to display at least one frame generated by the data processor.

3D display device and method

A 3D display apparatus is provided, which includes a display panel which displays a multi-viewpoint image, a barrier arranged on one side of the display panel unit, and a controller which controls the barrier to alternately form light transmitting areas and light blocking areas. The barrier includes a liquid crystal layer, a plurality of upper electrodes arranged to be spaced apart from one another on an upper surface of the liquid crystal layer, and a plurality of lower electrodes arranged to be spaced apart from one another on a lower surface of the liquid crystal layer.

3D display device using barrier and driving method thereof

A display apparatus includes a display panel which includes a plurality of sub pixels each outputting a sub pixel value of R, G, or B, a renderer which renders a multi-view image to be outputted by the display, and a controller which determines a rendering pitch according to a viewing distance of a user, and controls the renderer so that each of at least some of the plurality of sub pixels outputs a combined sub pixel value corresponding to a combination of sub pixel values corresponding to each of the plurality of views of the multi-view image according to the determined rendering pitch.

Display apparatus and display method thereof

A display apparatus is provided. The display apparatus includes: a display panel configured to include a plurality of pixels including a plurality of sub pixels and display an image frame; a visual field divider configured to be disposed on a front surface of the display panel; and a controller configured to render and display a first image frame to display a first view image in at least some of the plurality of sub pixels and a second image frame so that a second view image is shifted and displayed based on a position in which the first view image is displayed in the at least some of the sub pixels based on a distance between the display panel and the visual field divider.

Display apparatus and method of displaying multi-view images

An image display method includes alternately receiving left and right images of a 3D image; and turning on a backlight such that the backlight is on only in periods when the left images are displayed or only in periods when the right images are displayed. A method of controlling shutter glasses separately for left and right images of a three-dimensional (3D) image includes alternately receiving the left and right images of the 3D image; and opening two shutters of the shutter glasses only in periods when the left images are received or only in periods when the right images are received.
