Description

3D light field display system
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of light field display, in particular to a 3D light field display system.
Background
With the rapid development of scientific technology, naked eye 3D display has become the mainstream development trend of the display industry, wherein a naked eye 3D display device based on slit grating or cylindrical lens grating can construct viewpoints of three-dimensional objects at different positions in space. Due to the advantages of low cost, simple structure and the like, the naked eye 3D display equipment based on the slit grating or the cylindrical lens grating is high in commercialization degree.
The slit grating 102 based naked eye 3D display system shown in fig. 1, wherein the slit grating 102 acts to control light, can guide light emitted from pixels on the 2D display screen 101 to different positions in space. The viewpoint in fig. 1 refers to different side information of the three-dimensional object respectively seen at different positions in space. However, the above display method has some disadvantages, for example, a single image synthesized by acquiring 4 different side information of any three-dimensional model contains information of 4 viewpoints, so that the resolution of each viewpoint is reduced 1/4. And because the slit grating shields most of the light, the display mode based on the slit grating has low brightness.
Such as the lenticular lens grating 202 based naked eye 3D display system shown in fig. 2, where the lenticular lens grating 202 functions as the slit grating 102 of fig. 1. However, since the cylindrical lens can transmit light, the brightness of the lenticular lens 202 is higher than that of the slit grating 102, and the principle is to control the light by refraction when the light passes through the cylindrical lens. However, the resolutions of the two display modes are decreased with the increase of the viewpoint, and the viewing angles are 2arctanp/2g, where p is the pitch of the slit grating 102 or the lenticular lens 202, and g is the distance from the slit grating 102 or the lenticular lens 202 to the 2D display screen 101.
However, if the viewing angle is increased by increasing the pitch p only, other negative effects such as increased graininess and decreased resolution may be brought about. As shown in fig. 3, since the 2D display screen 101 is placed on the back focal plane of the cylindrical lenses 302, the light emitted by the pixels after passing through the cylindrical lenses 302 will be a parallel light beam with a width equal to the pitch of the cylindrical lenses, and only one pixel can be viewed by the human eye 303 through one cylindrical lens 302, the number of the cylindrical lenses 302 decreases as the pitch of the cylindrical lenses increases, so the resolution decreases.

Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the 2D image generation device 401 and the composite grating 402 cooperate to generate a 3D image.
In the embodiment of the invention, the composite grating 402 of the cylindrical lens is arranged at the slit of the slit grating, so that the problem that the resolution is reduced when the viewing angle is increased by the conventional 3D light field display system is solved, and the reduction of the resolution caused by the increase of the pitch is avoided while the viewing angle is increased. Meanwhile, compared with the traditional slit grating, the display brightness of the 3D image is improved.
Based on the above embodiments, in a 3D light field display system, the 2D image generation device 401 is arranged on a first plane, the composite grating 402 is arranged on a second plane, and the first plane is parallel to the second plane, that is, the plane where the 2D image generation device 401 is located is parallel to the plane where the composite grating 402 is located. Similarly, the plane where the 2D image generating device 401 is located is parallel to the imaging plane where the 2D image generating device 401 emits the 2D image, and the imaging plane where the 2D image generating device 401 emits the 2D image is parallel to the plane where the composite grating 402 is located.
In the embodiment of the invention, the first plane and the second plane are arranged in parallel, so that the improvement of the 3D image display effect of the 3D light field display system is facilitated.
Based on any of the above embodiments, a 3D light field display system, the 2D image generation device 401 is a projector array, the projector array includes a plurality of projectors, and the plurality of projectors are uniformly and equidistantly arranged on a first straight line of a first plane.
Each of the projectors is configured to project a 2D image onto the composite grating 402, and each of the projectors emits directional light. Each projector is capable of projecting information for several viewpoints. In the plurality of projectors, the viewpoints corresponding to the information projected by any two projectors are different. In the projector array, the 2D image projected by each projector forms an imaging plane of the projector array before being projected onto the composite grating 402, so that the imaging plane of the projector array is located between the projector array and the composite grating 402, and the imaging plane of any projector is independent. Several of the embodiments of the present invention refer to one or more. And the plurality of viewpoints can respectively see different side information of the three-dimensional object at different positions in the space.
Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the projectors are arranged at equal intervals, so that the 2D images projected by the projector array can be uniformly projected on the composite grating 402, and the 3D light field display system provided in the embodiment of the present invention can provide a better display effect.
In the embodiment of the invention, the projector array is arranged to comprise a plurality of projectors, so that the system has higher resolution and wider viewing angle compared with the prior art under the condition of increasing viewpoints, the problem that the number of viewpoints and the resolution form a mutual restriction relationship in the prior art is solved, and a 3D image with better effect can be displayed.
Based on any of the above embodiments, a 3D light field display system, the first line is parallel to the periodic structure of the composite grating. The composite grating has a periodic structure, and the directions of the reflection, transmission and diffraction of light by the composite grating are all the same as the direction of the periodic structure.
Based on any one of the above embodiments, a 3D light field display system further includes a vertical diffusion film for diffusing light rays in a light field having a stereoscopic effect in a vertical direction; the vertical diffusion film is positioned on a third plane, and the third plane is parallel to the first plane and the second plane; the first plane, the second plane and the third plane are arranged in sequence.
Specifically, the vertical diffusion film is obtained by a light interference method, and is an optical device capable of diffusing light rays in a light field with a stereoscopic effect emitted by the composite grating 402 by a preset angle in a vertical direction without affecting the light rays in a horizontal direction. It should be noted that the diffusion angle of the vertical diffusion film may be determined according to the actual requirements of the 3D light field display system, and this is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
The operation principle of the 3D light field display system in the embodiment of the invention is as follows:
first, a 2D image is emitted from the 2D image generating device 401 and projected on the composite grating 402. Subsequently, the 2D image projected by the 2D image generation device 401 passes through the composite grating 402 to form a light field with a stereoscopic effect. Then, after the light in the light field with the stereoscopic effect formed by the composite grating 402 is diffused in the vertical direction by a preset angle through the vertical diffusion film, a 3D image is formed.
In the embodiment of the invention, the vertical diffusion film is additionally arranged, so that the problem that the divergence angle of the light of the 2D image projected by the 2D image generating device is small is solved, and a viewer can be ensured to view the 3D image displayed by the 3D light field display system in the whole vertical direction.
Based on any of the above embodiments, a 3D light field display system, the viewing angle of the 3D light field display system is:
Figure GDA0002425838290000051
wherein,
Figure GDA0002425838290000052
for viewing angle, N is the number of projectors in the projector array, p is the pitch of the composite grating, and g is the distance between the composite grating and the imaging plane of the projector array.
Specifically, a plurality of projectors collectively form a plurality of viewpoints in space, and if the lateral resolution of the projector is M, the resolution of the three-dimensional image finally displayed is reduced to only M/N. The viewing angle of the 3D light field display system is also increased by a factor of N.
For a better understanding and application of a 3D light field display system proposed by the present invention, the following examples are made and the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
Fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of a 3D light field display system in an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 6, the 3D light field display system includes a projector array, a composite grating 402, and a vertical diffusion film 604.
Wherein the projector array is composed of 3 equidistantly arranged projectors, and the 3D light field display system in this example has 18 viewpoints, and each projector projects an image including information of 6 viewpoints. Specifically, the 2D image projected by the first projector 601 includes information of viewpoints 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18, the 2D image projected by the second projector 602 includes information of viewpoints 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12, and the 2D image projected by the third projector 603 includes information of viewpoints 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
Thus, the 2D image projected by the first projector 601 passes through the composite grating 402 and the vertical diffusion film 602 to form viewpoints 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 in space, the 2D image projected by the second projector 602 passes through the composite grating 402 and the vertical diffusion film 604 to form viewpoints 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 in space, and the 2D image projected by the third projector 603 passes through the composite grating 402 and the vertical diffusion film 604 to form viewpoints 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in space. Thus, the three projectors collectively construct a 3D video image including 18 viewpoints in a space.
If the horizontal resolution of the projector is M, the resolution of the finally displayed 3D image is only reduced to M/6, which is 3 times higher than that of the conventional method. The viewing perspectives of the 3D light field display system in this example are:
Figure GDA0002425838290000061
from the above, the viewing angle of the 3D light field display system in this example is improved by a factor of 3 compared to the conventional light field display system.
Here, the arrangement of the projector array is illustrated by 3 projectors in fig. 6, and the other number of projectors can be analogized, where the first projector 601, the second projector 602, and the third projector 603 are disposed at the longitudinal distance of the complex grating 402L + g, and the 2D images projected by the above projection are all imaged at the longitudinal direction L from the projector array. The first projector 601 and the third projector 603 are located at a distance d ═ pL/g from the second projector 602 in the lateral direction, where p is the pitch of the composite grating 402.
In this example, the composite grating 402 with the cylindrical lenses arranged at the slits of the slit grating solves the problem that the existing 3D light field display system may cause the resolution to be reduced when the viewing angle is increased, and ensures that the viewing angle is increased and the resolution is not reduced due to the increase of the pitch. Meanwhile, compared with the traditional slit grating, the display brightness of the 3D image is improved.
Secondly, through setting up the projecting apparatus array and including a plurality of projectors, can be under the condition that the sight is increased, compare in prior art, have higher resolution ratio and wider viewing angle, solved the sight number that exists among the prior art and resolution ratio and formed the relation of mutual restriction, can show the 3D image of better effect.
Thirdly, the projectors are arranged at equal intervals, so that the 2D images projected by the projector array can be uniformly projected on the composite grating 402, and the 3D light field display system provided by the embodiment of the invention can provide a better display effect.
Finally, the vertical diffusion film 604 is additionally arranged, so that the problem that the divergence angle of 2D image light projected by the 2D image generating device is small is solved, and a viewer can view a 3D image displayed by the 3D light field display system in the whole vertical direction.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used for illustrating the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, and are not limited thereto; although embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art will understand that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some or all of the technical features may be equivalently replaced; and the modifications or the substitutions do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions depart from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
