Abstract
Abstract— The Multi‐User 3‐D Television Display (MUTED), designed to provide three‐dimensional television (3‐D TV) by the display of autostereoscopic imagery to multiple viewers, each of whom should enjoy freedom of movement, is described. Such an autostereoscopic display system, which allows multiple viewers simultaneously by the use of head tracking, was previously demonstrated for TV applications in the ATTEST project. However, the requirement for a dynamically addressable, steerable backlight presented several problems for the illumination source. The MUTED system demonstrates significant advances in the realization of a multi‐user autostereoscopic display, partly due to the provision of a dynamic backlight employing a novel holographic laser projector. Such a technology provides significant advantages in terms of brightness, efficiency, laser speckle, and the ability to correct for optical aberrations compared to both imaging and scanned‐beam projection technologies.
