- the right eye shutter open period and the left eye shutter open period do not overlap, the occurrence of crosstalk between the left and right images can be suppressed.
- the shutter opening period when flicker is detected can be widened (duty can be increased) as compared with the first embodiment. Therefore, there is an effect that the brightness of the stereoscopic image through the shutter glasses can be increased.
- the backlight is always lit, but it may be lit only during the open period of the left and right eyeglass shutters. In this way, power consumption can be suppressed.
- the shutter control unit 4, the flicker detection unit 7, and the liquid crystal driving unit 2 are provided in the stereoscopic display device 10.
- the present invention is not limited to this.
- a part of the configuration may be provided on the stereoscopic image observation glasses 5 side.
- all of the shutter control unit 4, the flicker detection unit 7, and the liquid crystal drive unit 2 may be provided on the stereoscopic image observation glasses 5 side.
- the liquid crystal driving unit 2 is a video luminance control unit that controls the luminance of the left-eye video and the right-eye video displayed by the stereoscopic display device in accordance with the amount of light passing through each of the left and right shutters. It is an example.
- the shutter control unit 4 is configured to control the light passage amount of the shutter by controlling the shutter open period (duty), but in combination with the first embodiment, the shutter light passage is performed.
- the light passing amount may be controlled by controlling both the rate and the width of the open period.
- FIG. 8 shows the configuration of the stereoscopic display system according to this embodiment.
- the stereoscopic display system 200 includes a backlight control unit 60 instead of the backlight control unit 6 in the first embodiment.
- the stereoscopic display system 200 includes a flicker detection unit 70 instead of the flicker detection unit 7 in the first embodiment.
- the operation of the flicker detection unit 70 is basically the same as that of the flicker detection unit 7 in the first embodiment, but differs in that the output destination of the detection result is the backlight control unit 60.
- FIG. 9 shows a timing chart of the stereoscopic display system 200 in the present embodiment.
- FIG. 5D shows the luminance and lighting timing of a backlight that is lit in synchronization with a 120 Hz signal that is synchronized with the left and right video signals.
- the backlight 32 is turned on for the left eye and for the right eye in synchronization with the opening / closing timing of the shutters 5L and 5R by the backlight control unit 60, respectively.
- the shutters 5L and 5R control the light passing rate as shown in FIG. 9C when flicker of a fluorescent lamp is detected. Therefore, as a result, the light intensity of the fluorescent lamp that has passed through the left and right shutters is constant, and flicker does not occur as shown in FIG. 9E.
- the backlight control unit 60 sets the lighting brightness of the backlight 32 in FIG. 9B so that the change in the screen brightness of the left and right images due to the change in the light passing rate during the opening period of the shutters 5L and 5R becomes constant after passing through the shutter. Control is performed as shown in the backlight luminance (the numerical value is a ratio to the standard luminance). That is, the backlight control unit 60 controls the backlight 32 so that the lighting luminance increases as the shutter opening period has a lower light transmission rate. In this embodiment, as a result, the screen luminance after passing through the shutter becomes constant as shown in FIG. 9G, so that the luminance change of the stereoscopic video does not occur.
- the backlight control unit 60 does not control the lighting brightness of the backlight 32 with the light transmission rate of the shutter controlled as described above (when the backlight brightness in FIG. 9B is always 100%), the left and right shutters pass. The screen brightness after that varies depending on the light passing rate of the shutter.
- the backlight control unit 60 controls the lighting brightness of the backlight corresponding to the other shutter open period in accordance with 100% of the right shutter, which has the highest light transmission rate of the shutter. Specifically, as illustrated in FIG. 9B, the backlight control unit 60 controls the lighting brightness of the backlight corresponding to the right-side video to be 266%, 228%, 100%, 266%.
- the backlight control unit 60 controls the lighting brightness of the backlight corresponding to the left image to be 286%, 128%, 176%, and 286%.
- the duty of the open period of the left and right shutters is 25%
- the screen luminance of the left and right images finally passing through the left and right shutters is averaged to 25% as shown in FIG. 9G. be able to. That is, it is possible to reduce the variation in screen luminance that accompanies the light transmission rate control of the shutter.
- the percentage display indicating the lighting luminance of the backlight control unit 60 is a relative numerical value when the case where the control according to the light passage rate of the shutter is not performed is 100%, and the backlight lighting luminance. It does not indicate the absolute value of.
- the flicker detection unit 70 When the flicker is not detected by the flicker detection unit 70 (for example, in the case where the commercial power supply frequency is 60 Hz), the light transmission rates of the shutters 5L and 5R described above are kept unchanged at 100%, and the backlight control unit 60
- the backlight 32 may be always turned on. Thereby, when there is no flicker, the temperature drop of the liquid crystal panel 31 can be prevented by the heat generated by the lighting of the backlight 32. Therefore, a decrease in liquid crystal response speed can be reduced, and crosstalk between the left and right images can be reduced.
- the occurrence of crosstalk between the left and right images can be suppressed.
- the lighting brightness of the backlight can be set higher than in the first embodiment. Therefore, there is an effect that the brightness of the stereoscopic image through the shutter glasses can be increased.
