Research Abstract |
A multilayer display is constructed by stacking multiple layers of liquid crystal panels on top of a light source. It is a new type of autostereoscopic display capable of showing a light field representing an arbitrary 3D scene. In this study, we first developed an algorithm to convert a light field into a set of layered images. We then examined several properties of the multilayer display identifying key parameters relevant to the quality of the resultant stereoscopic images. Finally, we constructed a prototype of multilayer display to verify that an approximation of the light filed was actually reproduced on the surface of the display.
