Method for indicating a sweet spot in front of an auto-stereoscopic display device, corresponding auto-stereoscopic display device and computer program product
In one embodiment, it is proposed an auto-stereoscopic display device comprising a display panel configured to deliver n different images views, with n a integer greater or equal to two; and an optical filter which is configured to control diffusion directions of said n different images views. The auto-stereoscopic display device is remarkable in that it comprises opaque materials positioned in said display panel in such way that a content indicating a direction that a user should follow in order to be in a correct sweet spot, is delivered on an edge of different views, when said display panel is on.
1 . An auto-stereoscopic display device comprising a display panel configured to deliver n different images views, with n a integer greater or equal to two; and an optical filter which is configured to control diffusion directions of said n different images views, said auto-stereoscopic display device comprising opaque materials positioned in said display panel in such way that a content indicating a direction that a user should follow in order to be in a correct sweet spot, is delivered on an edge of different views, when said display panel is on.
2 . The auto-stereoscopic display device according to claim 1 , wherein said opaque material has fixed opacity properties, and that said edge of different views is an edge of extreme views.
3 . The auto-stereoscopic display device according to claim 1 , wherein said opaque materials are smart glasses of which light transmission properties can be changed under application of either a voltage and/or a light and/or heat.
4 . The auto-stereoscopic display device according to claim 3 , wherein said edge of different views is an edge of extreme views.
5 . The auto-stereoscopic display device according to claim, 1 wherein said opaque materials are positioned below color filter of sub-pixels comprised in said display panel.
6 . The auto-stereoscopic display device according to claim 1 , wherein said opaque materials are positioned on color filter of sub-pixels comprised in said display panel.
7 . The auto-stereoscopic display device according to claim 1 , wherein said optical filter comprises at least one parallax barrier.
8 . The auto-stereoscopic display device according to claim 1 , wherein said optical filter comprises at least one lenticular array.
9 . The auto-stereoscopic display device according to claim 1 , wherein said optical filter comprises at least one integral photography plate with a fly's-eye lens array.
10 . A method for indicating, in front of an auto-stereoscopic display device, a correct sweet spot, said method comprising controlling light transmission properties of materials positioned in a display panel in said auto-stereoscopic display device according to a voltage and/or a light and/or heat; and displaying on edge of different views a content indicating a direction that a user should follow in order to be located in a correct sweet spot.
11 . The method for indicating according to claim 10 , wherein said displaying is done during a first period of time, and in that when such first period of time has exceeded, displaying on said edge of different views content related to content displayed on other views instead of said content indicating a direction that a user should follow in order to be located in a correct sweet spot.
12 . A computer-readable and non-transient storage medium storing a computer program comprising a set of computer-executable instructions to implement a method a method for indicating, in front of an auto-stereoscopic display device, a correct sweet spot, when the instructions are executed by a computer, wherein the instructions comprise instructions, which when executed, configure the computer to perform a method for indicating, in front of an auto-stereoscopic display device, a correct sweet spot, said method comprising controlling light transmission properties of materials positioned in a display panel in said auto-stereoscopic display device according to a voltage and/or a light and/or heat; and displaying on edge of different views a content indicating a direction that a user should follow in order to be located in a correct sweet spot.
