51‐1: Method to Suppress Tiled Display Seam Visibility

Abstract

We proposed a method to suppress seam visibility of a tiled display by combining: 1) engineered substrate and base surface optical properties; and 2) the use of microstructure cover plate made by micro‐replication technology. We, first, studied the operation conditions to achieve effective suppression of tiling seam visibility by ray‐tracing modeling. Then, we conducted experimental investigation to validate those modeling predictions. Both modeling and experimental results show that the method could effectively suppress the seam visibility of a tiled display.
