Abstract: An optical element configured to allow an image beam passing through is provided. The optical element includes a first and a second birefringent layer and a gas layer between the first and the second birefringent layer. An extension direction of the gas layer is inclined with respect to an extension direction of the optical element, wherein the image beam passes through the first birefringent layer, the gas layer and the second birefringent layer in sequence. A first and a second sub image beam having different deflection angles are generated from the image beam when the image beam enters the gas layer. After the first and the second sub image beam are emitted from the second birefringent layer, a transmission path of the first and the second sub image beam are offset from each other by an offset distance, thereby improving resolution of an image to be viewed.

In the method, an integral image composed of multiple element images and used to reproduce a three-dimensional image is obtained. The pixel values of every element image are extracted. Depending on hardware configuration, a certain range of the pixels within one-dimensional pixels of the element image are selected. The pixel values of the selected pixels are filled in the zones divided from the one-dimensional pixels in an ascending order or a descending order, and/or with continuously-duplicate values according to pixel numbers of the selected pixels. A new element image is therefore formed. By repeating these steps, a new integral image can be created. This new integral image effectively reduces the difference between the image regions and won't make a viewer see the uncomfortable three-dimensional image due to the excessively large difference.
