Near-eye parallax barrier displays

Abstract:

In embodiments of the invention, a method may include displaying an array of slits using a first light-attenuating spatial light modulator, displaying a pre-filtered image using a second light-attenuating SLM by attenuating rays of light originating from a surrounding environment to synthesis a near-eye light field, where the rays of light pass through the first and second light-attenuating SLMs, and selectively blocking the rays of light originating from the surrounding environment using the array of slits to generate a virtual image in said near-eye light field.
