  • Three dimensional image presenting device
    Patent number: 7161559
    Abstract: A three dimensional image presenting device includes a three dimensional image presenting plate, multiple three dimensional image presenting units defined in the three dimensional image presenting plate, wherein each three dimensional image presenting unit is a space defined in the three dimensional image presenting plate and has a convex end, and multiple optical fibers each having a distal end corresponding to one of the three dimensional image presenting units. An image displayed by the three dimensional image presenting plate is apparently three dimensional due to the convex end of the space.
    Type: Grant

  • Stacked optical fiber screen
    Patent number: 7102594
    Abstract: An optical display has multiple display units overlapped on top of one another. Each display unit includes light holes defined in a front face of the display unit for emission of light, multiple first bosses formed on a top face of the display unit and multiple first grooves defined in a bottom face of the display unit such that two adjacent display units are able to be combined with one another via the extension of the first bosses from one display unit into the first grooves of the other display unit.
