Abstract: An air valve structure arranged on a base comprises an air plug and a state-switching component. The air plug is arranged in an air chamber in an axial direction. The air plug includes a closing state to close the air hole, and an opening state to open the air hole. The state-switching component comprises a driving member that links the air plug, a shape-memory alloy (SMA) wire connected with the driving member, and at least one conductive member connected with the SMA wire. The driving member exerts an acting force to the air plug based on a condition of electricity provided by the conductive member for the SMA wire. The direction of the acting force is non-parallel with the axial direction and the air plug is moved and changed between the closing state and the opening state by the acting force.

Abstract: Disclosed are an image display method and a 3d display system. The method is adapted to the 3d display system including a 3d display device and includes the following steps. A first image and a second image are obtained by splitting an input image according to a 3d image format. Whether the input image is a 3D format image complying with the 3D image format is determined through a stereo matching processing performed on the first image and the second image. An image interweaving process is enabled to be performed on the input image to generate an interweaving image in response to determining that the input image is the 3D format image complying with the 3D image format, and the interweaving image is displayed via the 3D display device.
