Abstract

ABSTRACTThe experimental measurements of the amplitude, period, and orientation of the moiré patterns in a digital autostereoscopic barrier-type 3D display are presented as functions of the angle across a wide angular range with a small increment. The slope and width of the functions are estimated. Simultaneous branches are observed and analyzed. The theoretical interpretation is based on the wavevectors and the transfer function. The results can help prevent or minimize the moiré effect in displays.

Highlights

  • The moiré effect is caused by the interaction of the rays passing through two or more periodic layers [1,2]

  • The moiré effect in three-dimensional (3D) displays with the horizontal parallax (HPO) is considered [3,4]

  • There are many factors affecting the amplitude of the moiré patterns, such as the light radiation conditions, the background illumination, and the polarizers in LCDs, and modulation transfer function (MTF) is one of them

Summary

Introduction

The moiré effect is caused by the interaction of the rays passing through two or more periodic layers [1,2]. The influence of MTF becomes essential when the moiré patterns are observed from afar, which does not allow the human eyes to resolve the individual screen pixels Such screens and viewing distances (when the individual pixels are not recognizable) are presently typical for displays. The measurements of the period and orientation of the moiré patterns in 3D displays were made previously [11], across a limited range and without details near the moiré angles.
