In an optical touch panel including a first group of light emitting and receiving packages and a second group of light emitting and receiving packages provided on a display surface at opposite sides to each other, each of the light emitting and receiving packages is formed by one light emitting element and one light receiving element vertically arranged above the display surface. The light emitting element of each light emitting and receiving package of the first group opposes the light receiving element of one light emitting and receiving package of the second group, and the light emitting element of each light emitting and receiving package of the second group opposes the light receiving element of one light emitting and receiving package of the first group.

Optical touch panel including vertically-arranged light emitting element and light receiving element

A non-spectacled stereoscopic display apparatus includes: a light guide plate having a light distributing face, a light emitting face, and first and second light incident faces; first and second light sources disposed on the first and second light incident faces, respectively; a single-face prism sheet disposed on the light emitting face of the light guide plate; a transmissive display panel disposed on a light emitting face of the single-face prism sheet with no air gap therebetween, the transmissive display panel having a polarizing plate opposing the light emitting face of the single-face prism sheet; and a synchronous drive circuit adapted to synchronize the first and second light sources to display parallax images on the transmissive display panel. A polarizing direction of polarization anisotropy of the light emitting face of the single-face prism sheet coincides with a polarizing direction of the polarizing plate.

Non-spectacled stereoscopic display apparatus capable of decreasing crosstalk

A non-spectacled stereoscopic display apparatus includes a light guide plate, first and second light sources, a single-face prism sheet, a transmissive display panel, a synchronous drive circuit adapted to synchronize the first and second light sources to display parallax images on the transmissive display panel, a phase difference plate, and an optically-modulating structure adapted to receive light emitted from the phase difference plate. The optically-modulating structure includes first and second transparent substrates, a prism array provided on the first transparent substrate, a first transparent electrode layer, a second transparent electrode layer, a liquid crystal layer, and first and second alignment layers for performing an aligning process upon liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer. The phase difference plate is adapted to rotate a main polarization angle of the single-face prism sheet by a predetermined angle to coincide with an aligning direction of the liquid crystal layer.
