Prototyping and optical evaluation of 9‐in. OCB time‐division‐multiplexing 18‐view 3‐D display

— An integral imaging time-division-multiplexing 18-view 3-D display based on the one-dimensional integral-imaging (1-D-II) technique using a 9-in. OCB-LCD, lenticular sheet, and active shutter has been developed. By simulating a lens shape and a shutter structure and analyzing the light-beam profile of the increasing-parallax-number region to find the best conditions, depth range, and viewing angle were an enhanced and a brighter and flicker-less 3-D image with smooth motion parallax was obtained.
