Background technology
Automatic stereo is shown as people and has opened new demonstration field, the especially appearance of 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus, important breakthrough on the Display Technique historical progress especially.The 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus has 2D and two display modes of 3D, is respectively applied for to beholder's display plane image and 3-D view.For example: when the beholder needs browsing page or carries out the copy editor, often require display to work in the 2D display mode; And when the beholder appreciates film or other videos, all wish to see picture true to nature, at this moment, the 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus often works in the 3D display mode.
Figure 1 shows that a kind of structural representation of existing 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus.This device comprises two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 1 and switching control 2, wherein, two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 1 comprises: the substrate 13 that to send the display floater 11 of plane picture light, post lenticulation 12, surface be the plane, be filled in the liquid crystal 14 between post lenticulation 12 and the substrate 13, all be covered with conducting film 15 on the opposite face of post lenticulation 12 and substrate 13.Switching control 2 comprises: switch 16 and voltage source 17, and an output of this voltage source 17 directly connects the conducting film on the described post lenticulation 12, and another output is connected to conducting film on the substrate 13 by switch 16.Because the switching displaying principle of two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit has been technique known in detail, therefore the operation principle of 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus shown in Figure 1 is described in detail no longer.In brief, in the device shown in Figure 1, switching control 2 by conducting film 15 outputs of liquid crystal 14 both sides in two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 1 or not output voltage to realize the selection of display mode, be that the beholder can be by making switch 16 be in " opening " state so that this 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus shows stereo-picture, and when the beholder makes switch 16 be in " pass " state, this 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus display plane image.
How existing switching control needs beholder's manual operation as shown in Figure 1 when realizing the switching of display mode.As everyone knows, the viewing areas of a 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus comprises viewing area, plane and stereos copic viewing district.Before the stereos copic viewing district was the 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus, the beholder can see the zone of stereo-picture, and the zone that can see display image outside the stereos copic viewing district is the viewing area, plane.Generally speaking, any one viewing location arrives the fore-and-aft distance of the display surface of this 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus in the viewing area, plane less than any one viewing location in the stereos copic viewing district to the fore-and-aft distance of the display surface of 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus, therefore, for large-sized 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus, when if the hand control switch of switching control is arranged on the display of two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit, the beholder needs to watch near returning the stereos copic viewing district behind the display operation hand control switch, brings very big inconvenience to the beholder like this.In addition, if adopt long-distance remote control equipment that display is carried out the display mode switching controls, the beholder also needs to carry remote control equipment and carries out manual operation.Therefore, need a kind of intelligent switching control, can sense the beholder automatically and the two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit is shown control.

Below be elaborated with the induction type 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus that comprises people's face detecting unit to comprising infrared detection device respectively.
Existing Infrared Detectors is a kind of radiant energy transducer, the infrared energy that is used for receiving is converted to other forms of energy such as the electric energy being convenient to measure or observe, heat energy, for example, after Infrared Detectors is collected extraneous infrared light, the infrared light of collecting can be converted to signal of telecommunication output.Occurring in nature, any object that is higher than absolute temperature (273 degree) all will produce infrared spectrum, and the infrared energy wavelength that the object of different temperatures discharges has nothing in common with each other, and promptly infrared wavelength is relevant with the height of temperature.In the embodiment of the invention, adopt the highstrung Infrared Detectors of human body infrared wavelength (8 μ m~12 μ m).
Figure 3 shows that a kind of induction type 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus structural representation that the embodiment of the invention provides, this device comprises: two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21 and infrared detection device 32.
Infrared detection device 32 comprises at least one existing Infrared Detectors, is used to survey the human infrared signal in display surface the place ahead of this 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus.Because the intensity of the signal that detects of infrared detection device 32 and the distance of human body and sniffer are inversely proportional to, when promptly the intensity of the signal that arrives when infrared detection is big more, illustrate that human body is near more from infrared detection device.Therefore, infrared detection device 32 can determine whether the beholder is in the presumptive area (viewing area, plane or stereos copic viewing district) according to the signal strength values that detects.During concrete work, infrared detection device 32 judges whether the signal strength values that detects is in the predetermined threshold range, when the signal strength values that detects is in the predetermined threshold range, infrared detection device 32 provides a certain driving to two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21, make its display plane image or stereo-picture, otherwise infrared detection device 32 provides another driving that makes its demonstration be different from above-mentioned image to two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21.
Preferably, if desired at the nearby square display plane image of the display surface of induction type 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus, and just can see stereo-picture in the position outside described display surface, then when the signal strength values that detects of infrared sniffer 32 during greater than predetermined first threshold (beholder is in the viewing area, plane), described infrared detection device 32 provides first to drive to two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21, otherwise, when the signal strength values that detects of infrared sniffer 32 during smaller or equal to described first threshold (beholder is in the stereos copic viewing district), described infrared detection device 32 to two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21 provide be different from first drive second drive.Described first threshold can for: on the beholder is positioned at direction perpendicular to the display surface of induction type 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus, during the position of first interface in viewing area, plane and stereos copic viewing district, the signal strength values that described infrared detection device 32 detects.In addition, if the stereos copic viewing district that needs is perpendicular to a distance range on the direction of the display surface of induction type 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus, then also need preestablish second threshold value less than described first threshold, described second threshold value can for: when the beholder is positioned at second interface position of hanging down as for vertically the going up of the display surface of induction type 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus, stereos copic viewing district and viewing area, plane, the signal strength values that described infrared detection device 32 detects.When the signal strength values that detects of infrared sniffer 32 during greater than described first threshold or less than described second threshold value, infrared detection device 32 provides first to drive to two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21, otherwise infrared detection device 32 provides second to drive to two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21.Two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21 is used under first drive controlling, and the display plane image perhaps under second drive controlling, shows stereo-picture.
The definition of the above-mentioned first threshold and second threshold value only is a kind of preferred implementation, in fact can be according to watching needs that the first threshold and second threshold value are set.
Preferably, in order to eliminate the interference of the infrared light that all the other objects send in the viewing area, plane, can adopt the infrared detection device that is coated with special filter plate on the irradiation face.
Described the first/the second drives the signals such as voltage, electric current that show the solid/plane images for the described two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21 of control.In addition, as long as first driving and second drives to triggering the unlike signal of two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21 display plane images and stereo-picture respectively.In fact, described first drive and second driving among any can refer to that infrared detection device 32 do not export any signal, for example, in the induction type 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus shown in Figure 3, if two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21 is a two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 1 shown in Figure 1, and described infrared detection device 32 self comprises the voltage source (this moment, induction type 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus did not comprise switching control shown in Figure 1 2) of an energy output voltage, when then the signal strength values that detects when infrared sniffer 32 is smaller or equal to first threshold or smaller or equal to first threshold and more than or equal to second threshold value, infrared detection device 32 does not provide voltage to the conducting film 15 of liquid crystal 14 both sides of this two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21, and this moment, the two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21 showed stereo-pictures; Otherwise infrared detection device 32 provides a nonzero value voltage (first drives), two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21 display plane images at this moment to the conducting film 15 of liquid crystal 14 both sides.
In the induction type 2D-3D autostereoscopic display apparatus of above-mentioned employing infrared detection device 22, infrared detection device can detect beholder's positional information, and according to the beholder present position, controls described two-dimensional/three-dimensional display unit 21 and show corresponding image.
