2D/3D mixed display based on integral imaging and a switchable diffuser element.

Abstract

In this paper, we present a 2D/3D mixed system with high image quality based on integral imaging and a switchable diffuser element. The proposed system comprises a liquid crystal display screen, lens array, switchable diffuser element and projector. The switchable diffuser element can be controlled to present 2D/3D mixed images or 2D and 3D images independently, and can reduce the Moire fringe and black grid. In addition to the improved display quality, the proposed system has advantages of a simple structure and is low cost, which contribute to the portability and practicability.
