Abstract: An auto-stereoscopic display device consists of a display array with a defined pixel arrangement and a parallax-barrier arranged in front of and/or behind the display array. The parallax-barrier is comprised of structural elements distributed over a barrier surface, where a barrier texture is formed by the structural elements from a row of barrier lines extending obliquely over the barrier surface and of flat barrier lines.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the autostereoscopic representation of a stereoscopic original image displayed on a display unit. Said method is characterized in that individual perspective views of the stereoscopic original image are selectively allocated to perspective-dependent display structures and an autostereoscopic representation of the image is generated based on an intrinsic perspective-dependent luminance (L) of a series of activated display elements, particularly individual pixels (P), subpixels (SP), pixel groups (PG), and/or similar other perspective-dependent display structures, said luminance (L) being generated by a display unit and being measured by an image analyzing unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for production of three-dimensional image patterns from two-dimensional image data, in particular from image data from image sequences, video films and the like. In this case, a virtual three-dimensional image framework (307) which is based on a supposition-based three-dimensional image depth graduation is generated on the basis of image information of imaged objects (303, 304, 305, 306) determined from monocular original image data, in which case the original image data is matched to the virtual three-dimensional image framework (307) in order to generate a virtual three-dimensional image model, and a range of individual images, which image the virtual three-dimensional image model, are obtained from the virtual three-dimensional image model. The virtual individual images are combined in a combination step to form a three-dimensional image pattern in order to carry out an imaging method with an additional depth effect.

Abstract: A method for three-dimensional display in which a plurality of individual image elements ?ij are made visible simultaneously in a raster of columns i and lines j, wherein the image elements ?ij reproduce partial information from a plurality of views Ak (k1 . . . n) of a scene/object, and adjacent image elements ?ij radiate light of different wavelengths or wavelength regions is provided. In a method of the type described above, wavelength-dependent propagation directions are predetermined for the light radiated from the image elements ?ij. The propagation directions within an observation space in which an observer is situated intersect in a plurality of intersection points which correspond to observation positions. From each observation position, one eye of an observer perceives predominantly partial information of a first selection and the other eye perceives predominantly partial information of a second selection from views Ak (k=1 . . . n).

The invention is further directed to arrangements for carrying out the method.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for the three-dimensional representation of scenes and/or objects from planar layer images which are obtained from scaled representation planes in the spatial depth of the scenes and/or objects. To this end, a plurality of adjacent representation elements are provided, wherein said elements are perpendicular to the vision direction of an observer or a camera. The representation elements are arranged relative to each other so as to define a flat raster comprising a plurality of lines and columns. Two at least of these adjacent representation elements, in a line and a column of this raster, have different focal distances. The number of different focal distances corresponds to the number of scaled representation planes in the spatial depth. The representation elements having the same focal distance are always associated with the same representation planes. A portion of a planar layer image is placed in the optical axis of each representation element.
