Abstract

A display device includes a view generator for generating input view numbers according to positions of a viewer's eyes, a view curve modifier for generating output view numbers according to the input view numbers, a three dimensional (3D) image data sampling module for adjusting image data of pixels according to the output view numbers, and a display module for displaying at least one image according to the pixels and the image data, wherein viewing positions are modified by the view curve modifier to generate modified viewing positions, the viewing positions correspond to first views, the modified viewing positions correspond to second views, and a number of second views is smaller than a number of first views.

Claims (21)

1 . A display device, comprising:

a view generator, arranged to generate a plurality of input view numbers according to a plurality of positions of a viewer's eyes;

a view curve modifier, coupled to the view generator, and arranged to generate a plurality of output view numbers according to the plurality of input view numbers;

a three dimensional (3D) image data sampling module, coupled to the view curve modifier, and arranged to adjust image data of a plurality of pixels according to the plurality of output view numbers; and

a display module, coupled to the 3D image data sampling module, and arranged to display at least one image according to the plurality of pixels and the image data;

wherein a plurality of viewing positions are modified by the view curve modifier to generate a plurality of modified viewing positions, the plurality of viewing positions correspond to a plurality of first views, the plurality of modified viewing positions correspond to a plurality of second views, and a number of the plurality of second views is smaller than a number of the plurality of first views.

2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the view curve modifier generates the plurality of output view numbers according to the plurality of input view numbers and at least one line segment.

3 . The display device of claim 2 , wherein at least one slope of the at least one line segment is smaller than or equal to one.

4 . The display device of claim 2 , wherein the at least one line segment at least comprises two line segments with a same slope.

5 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the view curve modifier generates the plurality of output view numbers according to the plurality of input view numbers and at least one line segment, and at least one slope of the at least one line segment is equal to zero.

6 . The display device of claim 5 , wherein the al least one line segment at least comprises two line segments with a slope of zero.

7 . The display device of claim 5 , wherein the al least one line segment at least comprises four line segments with a slope of zero.

8 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

an optical modulator, disposed corresponding to the display module.

9 . A display device, comprising:

a view generator, arranged to generate a plurality of input view numbers according to a plurality of reference parameters, wherein the plurality of reference parameters comprise a plurality of positions of a viewer's eyes;

a view curve modifier, coupled to the view generator, and arranged to generate a plurality of output view numbers according to the plurality of input view numbers and at least one S curve, wherein a plurality of viewing positions are modified by the view curve modifier to generate a plurality of modified viewing positions;

a three dimensional (3D) image data sampling module, coupled to the view curve modifier, and arranged to calculate a plurality of ray vectors from the plurality of modified viewing positions to a plurality of pixels, and generate a plurality of values of a gray level corresponding to the plurality of pixels along the plurality of ray vectors according to the plurality of output view numbers, in order to adjust image data of the plurality of pixels; and

a display module, coupled to the 3D image data sampling module, and arranged to display at least one image according to the plurality of pixels and the image data;

wherein the at least one S curve comprises a plurality of line segments, and at least one slope of at least one line segment among the plurality of line segments is smaller than or equal to one;

wherein the plurality of viewing positions correspond to a plurality of first views, the plurality of modified viewing positions correspond to a plurality of second views, and a number of the plurality of second views is smaller than a number of the plurality of first views.
