  • Publication number: 20160018663
    Abstract: Provided is an image display apparatus using a transflective electro-optic device. When a tiled large-screen image display apparatus using a plurality of flat panel displays is implemented, light emitted in two directions may be combined using the transflective electro-optic device. Accordingly, it is possible to effectively remove a visual obstacle caused by the frames of the plurality of flat panel displays, increase the degree of visual immersion, and also enable minimization of the volume of the image display apparatus and modularization of the same.

  • Patent number: 8941918
    Abstract: The 3D image display device disclosed herein includes an image display panel outputting image signals; and a parallax barrier arranged in front of the panel, being spaced at a particular distance, and having a plurality of transparent portions. The transparent portions of the barrier have a plurality of transverse lines, each of which forms one cycle, and the transparent portions that are adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction in one cycle are arranged to emit images to different fields of view, respectively. The panel operates on and off by lines in the transverse direction based on views.

  • Patent number: 8610711
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a autostereoscopic image display device capable of observing a natural three-dimensional image without crosstalk or pseudo-stereoscopic zone between optimal viewpoints and without using special glasses. The three-dimensional image display device of the present invention includes: a display panel configured to display image information of at least two viewpoints; an optical substrate that is separately disposed from the display panel at a predetermined distance, the optical substrate being configured to form at least one intermediate viewing zone between left and right viewing zones included in base viewing zones corresponding to two viewpoints, which are observed when a position of an observer moves horizontally; and a control unit configured to provide the image information corresponding to the respective viewpoints at the base viewing zones and remove image information from the at least one intermediate viewing zone.
