  • Patent number: 11150488
    Abstract: A display system may include a display screen configured to display an image, a backlight configured to provide collimated or substantially collimated light to the display screen, and a transparent contoured projection screen. The transparent contoured projection screen may include portions at different elevations to display different elements to a viewer in a three dimensional manner.
    Type: Grant

    Assignee: PURE DEPTH LIMITED
    Inventors: Gareth P. Bell, James S. Emslie
  • Patent number: 10642063
    Abstract: A multi-display system (e.g., a display including multiple display panels) includes at least first and second displays (e.g., display panels or display layers) arranged substantially parallel to each other in order to display three-dimensional (3D) features to a viewer(s). The first and second displays have different color filter patterns, respectively, as viewed from a point of view of a viewer of the display device, in order to reduce moiré interference.

  • Patent number: 10564322
    Abstract: A multi-layered display including an upper display screen, and a lower display screen arranged so as to at least partially overlap with the upper display screen is described. An antiglare layer is disposed on the upper display screen. The antiglare layer includes a diffraction pattern configured to blur ambient reflections without substantially affecting transmitted light. The diffraction pattern may have a quarter wavelength thickness. Method for forming the multi-layered display is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20190221176
    Abstract: A multi-layer display system may include a plurality of display panels arranged in an overlapping manner, a backlight configured to provide light to the plurality of display panels, and a processing system. Each of the display panels includes an array of pixels, each pixel including active red (R), active green (G), and active blue (B) sub-pixels. The pixels in one or more display panels may further include passive white (W) sub-pixels. The multi-layer display may further comprise a pair of crossed polarized layers. The processing system may be configured to control simultaneous display of different content on the plurality of display panels.

  • Publication number: 20190005872
    Abstract: A multi-display system (e.g., a display including multiple display panels) includes at least first and second displays (e.g., display panels or display layers) arranged substantially parallel to each other in order to display three-dimensional (3D) features to a viewer(s). A backlight unit produces and directs collimated light from a top surface of a light guide and towards the first and second displays.
