25.1: Distinguished Paper : Multi‐Viewer Autostereoscopic Display with Dynamically‐Addressable Holographic Backlight

Abstract

An autostereoscopic display system, which allowed multiple viewers simultaneously by use of head‐tracking, was previously demonstrated for TV applications in the ATTEST project. However, the requirement for a dynamically addressable, movable backlight presented several problems for the illumination source. In this paper, the authors demonstrate how the use of a novel laser‐based holographic projection system can be used to address these problems.
