  • Publication number: 20240121373
    Abstract: Disclosed are an image display method and a 3d display system. The method is adapted to the 3d display system including a 3d display device and includes the following steps. A first image and a second image are obtained by splitting an input image according to a 3d image format. Whether the input image is a 3D format image complying with the 3D image format is determined through a stereo matching processing performed on the first image and the second image. An image interweaving process is enabled to be performed on the input image to generate an interweaving image in response to determining that the input image is the 3D format image complying with the 3D image format, and the interweaving image is displayed via the 3D display device.

  • Publication number: 20240046608
    Abstract: A 3D format image detection method and an electronic apparatus using the same are provided. The 3D format image detection method includes the following steps. A first image and a second image are obtained by splitting an input image according to a 3D image format. A 3D matching processing is performed on the first image and the second image to generate a disparity map of the first image and the second image. The matching number of a plurality of first pixels in the first image matched with a plurality of second pixels in the second image is calculated according to the disparity map. Whether the input image is a 3D format image conforming to the 3D image format is determined according to the matching number.

  • Patent number: 11573077
    Abstract: Methods and systems for measuring optical properties of transistor channel structures and linking the optical properties to the state of strain are presented herein. Optical scatterometry measurements of strain are performed on metrology targets that closely mimic partially manufactured, real device structures. In one aspect, optical scatterometry is employed to measure uniaxial strain in a semiconductor channel based on differences in measured spectra along and across the semiconductor channel. In a further aspect, the effect of strain on measured spectra is decorrelated from other contributors, such as the geometry and material properties of structures captured in the measurement. In another aspect, measurements are performed on a metrology target pair including a strained metrology target and a corresponding unstrained metrology target to resolve the geometry of the metrology target under measurement and to provide a reference for the estimation of the absolute value of strain.
