Abstract: An electronic device may include a display system with a pixel array and a catadioptric lens. The display system may include a linear polarizer through which image light from the pixel array passes and a first quarter wave plate through which the light passes after passing through the polarizer. The lens may include a partial mirror, a second quarter wave plate, and a reflective polarizer. A third quarter wave plate may be formed between the linear polarizer and the pixel array to mitigate ghost images. Control circuitry may predict potential ghost images based on the geometry of the lens and data from an image frame. Tone mapping circuitry may adjust contrast of the image frame within a region overlapping the predicted ghost image. The control circuitry may adjust luminance of the image frame outside of the region overlapping the predicted ghost image.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a system and/or method may operate a liquid crystal device. The method may include increasing a voltage provided to a driven level to a liquid crystal addressable element of the liquid crystal device. Said increasing may be performed over a time period greater than 1 ms. The liquid crystal addressable element may be in a driven state at the driven level. The method may include reducing the provided voltage to a relaxed level. The liquid crystal addressable element may be in a relaxed state at the relaxed level. Said increasing the voltage over the time period to the driven level may result in a reduced acoustical noise associated with the provided voltage. In some embodiments, the liquid crystal device may include a three-dimensional (3D) display.

Abstract: A voltage may be provided to a liquid crystal addressable element as part of a liquid crystal device. The provided voltage may be reduced from a driven state to a relaxed state in a time period greater than 1 ?s. The reduction may further be performed in less than 20 ms. The liquid crystal device may be a polarization switch, which in some embodiments may be a multi-segment polarization switch. In one embodiment, pulses of limited duration of a light source may be provided to the polarization switch. The manner of voltage reduction may reduce optical bounce of the liquid crystal device and may allow one or more of the pulses of the light source to be shifted later in time.

In some embodiments, the method may include configuring at least a portion of the 3D image based upon the assessed handedness. The at least a portion of the 3D image may include interactive menus. In some embodiments, the method may include configuring at least a portion of an interactive hardware associated with the system based upon the assessed handedness.

Abstract: System and method for video processing. First video levels for pixels for a left image of a stereo image pair are received from a GPU. Gamma corrected video levels (g-levels) are generated via a gamma look-up table (LUT) based on the first video levels. Outputs of the gamma LUT are constrained by minimum and/or maximum values, thereby excluding values for which corresponding post-OD display luminance values differ from static display luminance values by more than a specified error. Overdriven video levels are generated via a left OD LUT based on the g-levels. The overdriven video levels correspond to display luminance values that differ from corresponding static display luminance values by less than the error threshold, and are provided to a display device for display of the left image. This process is repeated for second video levels for a right image of the stereo image pair, using a right OD LUT.
