Abstract

An apparatus and method for displaying an image are disclosed. The apparatus includes microLED unit cells including sets of microLEDs each emitting light and at least one lens to control an emission angle and emission profile of the light emitted by the microLED unit cells. A display controller controls an intensity distribution of the microLED unit cells in accordance with first and second video data signals such that a first portion of the emitted light is emitted at a first emission angle with a first emission profile at a first observation angle relative to a display and a second portion of the emitted light is emitted at a second emission angle with a second emission profile at a second observation angle relative to the display. The first and second light portions form unrelated images.
