Abstract: A display device includes: an optical barrier unit which includes a plurality of gate groups each including a plurality of gates, and in which gates in different groups perform a gating operation individually at different timings; a combined image generator which generates a plurality of sequences of combined images each corresponding to the plurality of gate groups based on a plurality of different viewpoint images in accordance with an opening timing of the respective gate groups; and a display unit which displays the corresponding sequence of combined images in synchronization with the gating operation of the respective gate groups, wherein the combined image generator generates at least one sequence of combined images through interpolation.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an image display apparatus including: a transmissive display panel; an illuminator configured to illuminate a rear surface of the transmissive display panel; an optical separator which includes a plurality of switchers capable of switching between a light transmitting state and a light blocking state, for separating an image displayed on the transmissive display panel by bringing one of the switchers into the light transmitting state and the other switchers into the light blocking state; and a light regulator capable of switching between a light diffusing state and a light transmitting state.

Abstract: A display device includes: a display unit including plural display sections divided in a first direction and performing line sequential scanning in the first direction; and an interpolation picture generation unit generating an interpolation picture in accordance with a timing at which each display section is scanned based on supplied frame pictures, wherein the display unit displays the interpolation picture corresponding to the display section in each display section.

Abstract: A display apparatus includes: a display section that is driven to perform line sequential scanning and display a plurality of different viewpoint video images; a backlight that includes a plurality of sub-light emitting areas separated in the line sequential scanning direction; a light barrier that has a plurality of open/close unit groups each of which is formed of a plurality of open/close units, the open/close units in different groups opened or closed at different timings; and a backlight controller that controls light emission from the sub-light emitting areas in the backlight in synchronization with the line sequential scanning in the display section, wherein the backlight controller separately controls intensities of the light emitted from the sub-light emitting areas.

Abstract: A stereoscopic display system includes: a display panel; a backlight; and shutter eyeglasses including a left-eye shutter and a right-eye shutter. The backlight is off during a period in which the left-eye and right-eye shutters both are open.

Abstract: A video display system includes a video display unit time-divisionally performing switching between a plurality of video streams to display the video streams, thereby emitting linear polarized display light; and shutter eyeglasses performing switching between open state to transmit incident light and closed state to block the incident light in synchronization with the switching between the video streams in the video display unit, each eyeglass in the shutter eyeglasses including a liquid crystal device, an entrance-side polarization plate provided on a light entrance side of the liquid crystal device and an exit-side polarization plate provided on a light exit side thereof. Polarization degree in the entrance-side polarization plate is lower than that in the exit-side polarization plate.

Abstract: Shutter glasses for allowing a user to perceive 3D video includes: a shutter for a right eye and a shutter for a left eye performing open and close operations of shutters in accordance with a timing signal synchronized with 2D video displayed on a display; a detection means for detecting light intensity of linear polarized light; and a shutter control means for controlling ON/OFF for driving the shutter for the right eye and the shutter for the left eye in accordance with the detected light intensity of the linear polarized light.

Abstract: Described herein are circuits and methods enabling a user to view 3D video using shutter glasses. The shutter glasses can wirelessly receive a video synchronization signal to synchronize the timing of a shutter operation with the timing of displayed video. A self-timing signal can be generated based on a measured period of the video synchronization signal. A low-power mode of operation can be entered for a period of time in which reception of the video synchronization signal is disabled and the shutter operation is controlled based on the self-timing signal.
