In a specific embodiment, a passive matrix OLED display is described comprising an array of individually addressable OLED pixels arranged in column and row lines in an imaging area of the display, wherein at least one pixel comprises at least one current-limiting component connected in series with an electroluminescent diode, and wherein the electroluminescent diode comprises a plurality of electroluminescent units connected in series between an anode and a cathode.

Abstract: A system for displaying images in auto-stereoscopic format, the system includes an illumination source that produces light in at least two bands in synchronization with frame sequential stereo image data; a single spatial light modulator that is driven by the frame sequential stereo image data and that receives the two bands of light from the illumination source; and a real-time eye tracking device that monitors positions of eyes of a user so that viewing is not interrupted by movement of the eyes of the user; wherein the user views the two bands of light sequentially on only the single spatial display which projects a three-dimensional image to the viewer.

Abstract: An adaptive autostereoscopic display system (10) provides an apparatus for conditioning the psychological state, physiological state, or behavior of a subject (12) by displaying a stereoscopic virtual image at a left viewing pupil (14l) and a right viewing pupil (14r). A first set of images (100) is displayed and physiological response measurements are obtained from the subject (12). Based on the response of the subject (12) a personalized image response profile is obtained. Then, in order to condition the psychological state, physiological state, or behavior of the subject (12), a second set of images (102), based on the personalized image response profile is displayed.

Abstract: A projection apparatus (18) forms an image frame (22) on a display surface (12), where the image frame (22) is a two-dimensional array of pixels. The projection apparatus (18) has a laser (40) light source, an image modulator (42) for forming an image-bearing beam according to scanned line data, and projection optics (44) for projecting the image-bearing beam toward the display surface (12). A camera (20) obtains a sensed pixel array by sensing the two-dimensional array of pixels from the display surface (12). A control logic processor (28) compares the sensed pixel array with corresponding image data to identify any portion of the image-bearing beam that is obstructed from the display surface (12) and to disable obstructed portions of the image-bearing beam for at least one subsequent image frame (22).

Abstract: A display apparatus for providing an image on a curved display surface includes a line image generation apparatus for generating a modulated line image, where the line image generation apparatus includes a laser light source for providing an illumination beam, a linear spatial light modulator for modulating the illumination beam to provide a modulated line image as at least one diffracted order of the illumination beam, a projection lens for directing the modulated line image toward a line image scanner for scanning the modulated light beam to form a two-dimensional image on the curved display surface, wherein the line image scanner is optically disposed near the center of curvature of the curved display surface.

Abstract: A monocentric autostereoscopic optical apparatus (10) for viewing a virtual image, electronically generated and projected on a curved surface. For each left and right image component, a separate optical system comprises an image generation system (701, 70r) and projection system (72), the projection system comprising a spherical diffusive surface (40) and a ball lens (30) to provide wide field of view. A monocentric arrangement of optical components images the ball lens pupil (48) at the viewing pupil (14) and essentially provides a single center of curvature (C) for projection components. Use of such a monocentric arrangement, diffusive surface (40), and ball lens (30) provides an exceptionally wide field of view with large viewing pupil (14).

Abstract: Autostereoscopic images are produced by projecting a stereo pair of images onto a modified cube-corner retroreflective material. The cube-corner differs from that commonly available in that it has been altered to return the light to viewers eyes rather than directly back to the source of the projection.
