Title:

    Simple Projection-Type Integral Photography System Using Single Projector and Fly’s Eye Lens

Presenter(s)/Author(s):



Abstract:


    Integral photography (IP) is one of the best stereoscopic display systems because horizontal as well as vertical parallax can be obtained without the need to wear 3D glasses. A simple IP system consists of a flat panel display (FPD), such as a liquid crystal display (LCD), with a fly’s eye lens on it. The FPD is usually placed on or near the focal plane of the fly’s eye lens. In this case, the size of a display is similar to the size of the FPD. However, in some cases, a large screen is preferred to obtain a better sense of reality. In these cases, a projection-type 3D display [Okoshi 1976] is highly necessary. Most display systems are very sophisticated and thus very expensive even in instances where only horizontal parallax is obtained. This condition is mainly attributed to the fact that a large number of projectors, each of which corresponds to a view, have to be used. Our motivation for this study is to provide a simple and inexpensive projection-type integral photography system in which only one projector is used.
