High-performance autostereoscopic display based on the lenticular tracking method.

We propose a novel full-parallax autostereoscopic display based on a lenticular tracking method to achieve separation between the viewing angle and image resolution and to improve these two parameters simultaneously. The proposed method enables the viewing angle to be independent of the image resolution and has the potential to solve the long-term trade-off problem in integral photography. By employing the lenticular lens array instead of the micro-lens array in integral photography with viewing tracking, the proposed method shows a high-image resolution and wide viewing angle 3D display with full parallax. A real-time tracking and rendering algorithm for the display method is also proposed in this study. The experimental results, compared with those of the conventional integral photography display and the tracking-based integral photography display, demonstrate the feasibility of this lenticular tracking display technology and its advantages in display resolution and viewing angle, suggesting its potential in practical three-dimensional applications.
