Abstract
An autostereoscopic display system including: I) image signal electronics; II) a first projector including: A) a first light source 33; B) a first spatial light modulator 35 optically connected to said first light source and electrically connected to said image signal electronics; and C) a first image delivery system optically connected to said first spatial light modulator; III) a second projector connected to said first projector, said second projector including: A) a second light source 34; B) a second spatial light modulator 36 optically connected to said second light source and electrically connected to said image signal electronics; and C) a second image delivery system optically connected to said second spatial light modulator; IV) a fan-out multiplexer 39 optically connected to both said first image delivery system and said second image delivery system, said fan-out multiplexer being characterized by a viewing zone period and a viewing region period; and V) a binary head tracker 40 electrically connected to said image signal electronics, said binary head tracker including a camera 42 and a circuit board. The system provides the capability for real-time autostereoscopic display together with an impressive look-around feature.
