Abstract: An auto-stereoscopic display is provided with a plurality of projectors, a micro-lens array for collecting the light beams of the images projected from the projectors, and a diffuser for diffusing the beams collected by the micro-lens array. The diffuser has the diffusion angle corresponding to the distance from the micro-lens array. Furthermore, the diffuser is arranged so as to form a virtual beam collecting point between a plurality of collecting points of the light beams formed by a plurality of micro-lenses constituting the micro-lens array.

Abstract: By installing a diffuser between a group of projectors and lenses to spread light rays from the projector group, it is possible to provide pixels with such sizes as to give perception that pixels are adjacent to each other. As a result, smooth representation of images and video display with a high stereoscopic effect are made possible.

Abstract: Monorail from which hangers are suspended move along a rail. Baskets containing works to be electrodeposition coated with paint are loaded in each hanger. Tanks are located below part of the rail. When the monorail has come to the position directly above each tank, the hanger is lowered into the tank. In the tank the works are treated with liquid while the hanger is rocked. Follwing the treatment, the hanger is raised out of the tank and is rocked again to drop into the same tank the liquid used in that tank and remaining on or in the works.
