  • Patent number: 9329396
    Abstract: An image displaying sheet includes a lens array composed of plural lenticular lenses, wherein the lenticular lens has curvatures along two different directions. A composite image has image periods along the two different directions. The application of the image displaying sheet on the composite image can generate the morphing effect, the dynamic effect, the 3D effect, the depth effect or the zooming effect of the composite image.

  • Patent number: 8824033
    Abstract: A color photographic hologram system is provided. The reference light wave is incident to the film at a fixed reference beam angle. By adjusting an included angle between the object light wave corresponding to respective monochromatic component images and the reference light wave, the reference light wave and the object light wave are interfered with each other to result in a plurality of interference fringes on the film. When a white light is projected on the film, the reconstructed image shows the color effect.

  • Patent number: 8817349
    Abstract: A photographic hologram system is provided. The use of an image slicing process and/or the arrangement of half-cylindrical lens in the optical path of an optical light wave and upstream of the film is effective to reduce the times of multiple exposures of the film. As a consequence, the brightness of the reconstructed image is enhanced.

  • Publication number: 20130272026
    Abstract: A lateral light source processing module and a lighting device with the lateral light source processing module are provided. The lateral light source processing module includes a first surface and a second surface opposed to the first surface. In addition, plural saw-toothed structures are formed on the second surface. An included angle between any surface of any saw-toothed structure and a normal line perpendicular to the first surface is a specified angle. Consequently, the light beams projected on the saw-toothed structure are subject to total internal reflection. According to the specified angle, the reflected light beams are propagated along a corresponding direction.

  • Publication number: 20130271803
    Abstract: A holographic image forming system is provided. The holographic image forming system includes an illumination unit, a beam splitting unit, a reference beam processing unit, an image generating unit, an object beam processing unit, and a film. The reference beam processing unit is used to generate a reference light wave carrying an image information of a target object. The reference light wave is incident to the film. Consequently, the times of multiple exposures of the film are reduced, and the brightness of the reconstructed image is enhanced.

  • Publication number: 20130272024
    Abstract: A diffusion structure and a lighting device with the diffusion structure are provided. The diffusion structure includes a first surface and a second surface. A speckle layer is formed on the first surface. A grating layer is formed on the second surface. The grating layer is arranged between a light source and the speckle layer. Consequently, plural light beams emitted by the light source are sequentially transmitted through the grating layer and the speckle layer and then outputted to surroundings.
