  • Optical enhancement using fiber optic faceplates
    Patent number: 8605135
    Abstract: A display apparatus may include, but is not limited to: an image display device; and a fiber optic plate disposed over a display surface of the image display device. A method for displaying images may include, but is not limited to: generating an image on a display device; receiving light corresponding to the image at a fiber optic plate; and reducing at least one of luminance asymmetry, luminance non-uniformity, and color shift across a viewing angle of the image display device according to a configuration of the fiber optic plate. A method for displaying images may include, but is not limited to: generating a stereoscopic image on a display device; receiving light corresponding to the stereoscopic image at a fiber optic plate; and reducing at least one of luminance asymmetry, luminance non-uniformity, and color shift across a viewing angle and may also reduce/eliminate reverse-stereoscopic effects in the stereoscopic image according to a configuration of the fiber optic plate.
