Glasses-free 3D image viewer by handmade DIY craft

Abstract

We developed a glasses-free 3D stereoscopic display using an LCD display panel, a view control film and a grating film for stereoscopic viewing. The display screen is divided in half in order that left and right regions provide the stereoscopic images for left and right eyes. Because both stereoscopic images are not in the same position, it is difficult for the observer to view the 3D image by the stereoviewing. The grating film can solve this problem because it shifts both left and right images to the same position. Moreover the view control film can give us glasses-free 3D viewing. As the result, the observer can watch overlapped stereoscopic images for left and right eyes without special glasses such as polarized glasses. © 2009 Springer.
