Abstract: Emissive micro-pixel spatial light modulators with non-telecentric emission are introduced. The individual light emission from each multi-color micro-scale emissive pixel is directionally modulated in a unique direction to enable application-specific non-telecentric emission pattern from the micro-pixel array of the emissive spatial light modulator. Design methods for directionally modulating the light emission of the individual micro-pixels using micro-pixel level optics are described. Monolithic wafer level optics methods for fabricating the micro-pixel level optics are also described. An emissive multi-color micro-pixel spatial light modulator with non-telecentric emission is used to exemplify the methods and possible applications of the present invention: ultra-compact image projector, minimal cross-talk 3D light field display, multi-view 2D display, and directionally modulated waveguide optics for see-through near-eye displays.

Abstract: A method of configuring a media facility having at least one media source, an output device having one or more output windows, and a media integration system having a media space icon, the method comprising: generating a first icon representing the at least one media source, the at least one media source having an output configured to be coupled to an input of the output device through the media integration system, encrypting characteristics of said at least one media source in the first icon, selecting the first icon, applying the selected first icon to the media space icon to provide the output of the at least one media source to the input of the output device through the media integration system, generating a window icon on the media space icon, the window icon representing one of the one or more output windows, encrypting characteristics of the output window and/or the output device in the window icon, and displaying the first icon and the window icon on a display device.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for 3D interaction with an autostereoscopic display are presented. A motion tracking system may include video cameras that track a 3D motion of a user within an interaction volume defined by the fields-of-view of the video cameras, as the user moves a light source or other optical marker or an anatomical region of the user within the interaction volume. The motion tracking system may generate 3D tracking data containing position information about the 3D motion. An imaging system may create a virtual scene by tracing 3D virtual objects in virtual space, using the position information in the 3D tracking data. The imaging system may synthesize a plurality of views of the virtual scene, and interlace the plurality of views to generate an interlaced image to drive the autostereoscopic display and to be displayed thereon.
