Abstract
The invention relates to a method for reducing moire patterns on an autostereoscopic display, which display comprises an array of pixels, each having at least one sub-pixel corresponding to a main color, lined with a view altering layer, such as a lenticular lens stack or parallax barrier, and wherein the display further comprises an eye tracking system for determining the position of the eyes of a viewer relative to the display, which method comprises the steps of: —moire pattern detection by repeating for each main color the steps of: +activating the sub-pixels of all pixels corresponding to the single main color; obtaining moire pattern data by observing the display from a plurality of viewing positions; determining from the obtained moire pattern data the frequency, phase, direction and amplitude of the moire pattern for each of the viewing positions and storing the determined values; —controlling the pixels of the autostereoscopic display to display images, wherein the controlling comprises at least the steps of: determining the viewing position of the eyes of a viewer using the eye tracking system; rendering 3D images from image data, while correcting the 3D images by superimposing a compensation pattern for each main color, which pattern is generated based on the stored values and the determined viewing position to reduce the moire pattern for said viewing position.
