Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for displaying an image in a direction towards an observer observing the image from a viewpoint. The method comprises providing a display system including a tracking system for tracking or detecting the position of the observer, a display screen having a plurality of image pixels for displaying the image, a controller for controlling the direction of light emitted from said display screen, and a processing unit for generating a buffer image from a data source. The method further comprises tracking the observer and generating tracking data to the processing unit, generating the buffer image and embedding the tracking data as embedded data in the buffer image, outputting the buffer image to the display screen and displaying the image on the display screen, and reading the embedded data by the controller and directing light from the display screen in a direction towards the viewpoint.

Abstract: A time multiplexed, selectively updated, sub-pixel less, self-aligning, electrically and optically dual addressed, multi directional pixel is provided. This can potentially greatly increase the performance of an automultiscopic display and reduce the complexity. In one embodiment, an automultiscopic display can simply be provided by a plurality of directional OLED pixels.
