Abstract: A method of mounting screen material may include a screen mounted to a frame at multiple mounting points. One embodiment may include mounting patches attached along the perimeter of the screen. These mounting patches may be strain relieved in order to enable rolling the screen without sacrificing the in-plane rigidity of the patches when the screen is mounted to a frame. Stated differently, the strain relieved patches may reduce the strain on the screen in the circumstance the screen is rolled onto a core. The mounting patches may be strain relieved by locating notches or slits in the mounting patch.

Abstract: A stiffening strip at selected edges of a screen may enable the use and mounting of a high-elastic modulus substrate screen material. Such screen materials may be engineered to provide polarization-preserving characteristics, and be applied to or part of the high-elastic modulus substrate. Furthermore, the stiffening strip may enable the use of screen vibration techniques to reduce speckle in display applications that use projection screens, particularly those display applications using illumination sources prone to speckle such as laser-based projection. The screen vibration may be provided by a vibrating device attached to the stiffening strip.

Abstract: A directional polarization preserving front projection screen may be preferably produced using an engineered surface. Unlike statistical surfaces, engineered surfaces may provide locally specular reflections, with little to no bulk scatter, while substantially eliminating features smaller than a wavelength of illumination and thus true depolarization. Most, if not all, contours contributing to the slope probability density can be engineered to achieve a desired macroscopic gain profile. The screen may diffuse light by using locally specular reflections, in which a bias angle introduced to the gain profile of the screen may be determined by the slope of the ramps, and with resets that may be substantially hidden from projector illumination.

Abstract: A 3D image pixel in a spatially multiplexed stereo 3D display includes a first left-eye subpixel and a second left-eye subpixel that are both driven when displaying the left-eye image. The 3D image pixel also includes a first right-eye subpixel and a second right-eye subpixel that are both driven when displaying the right-eye image. The subpixels may all have a square shape. Single color emitters in the subpixels of the same eye may be driven by the same electronics. A 3D image pixel in a second spatially multiplexed stereo 3D display includes a left-eye pixel driven when displaying the left-eye image and a right-eye pixel driven when displaying the right-eye image. The pixels may all have a rectangular shape, and the horizontal measurement of the pixels may be greater than the vertical measurement of the pixels.

Abstract: Liquid crystal devices are described that maintain performance of polarization/amplitude modulation under high irradiance conditions. Configurations that isolate polarizing elements under high thermal load are discussed which allow other elements, such as glass, which may be sensitive to stress birefringence to remain near optimum thermal conditions.

Abstract: A front projection screen is provided having a first portion of material and a second portion of material. The first and second portions of material may have an undercut edge profile, and the first and second portions of material may be perforated, such that the perforations allow the first and second portions of material to be at least somewhat acoustically transmissive while substantially maintaining optical efficiency from the front side of the front projection screen. Such optical efficiency has particular utility in stereoscopic projection applications utilizing polarized encoded light.

Abstract: Curved polarization filters and methods of manufacturing such filters are described in the present disclosure. An exemplary method includes laminating a planar polarization layer to a planar retarder layer at a predetermined orientation and bending the laminate to create a curved filter. The strain on the retarder layer results in stress-induced birefringence, and the predetermined orientation of the retarder substantially compensates for the stress-induced birefringence. In some embodiments, the predetermination is based on mathematical models. In some other embodiment, the predetermination is based on experimental data.
