摘要： This invention relates generally to improved approaches for displaying volumetric three-dimensional (3D) images. The basic idea features improved optical-mechanical mechanisms enabling creation of volumetric 3D images by successive projection of whole frames of 2D images, through an optical-mechanical image delivery system, onto a display plane that moves periodically and sweeps a space. In the rotating approach, two image delivery mechanisms can be used: a revolving multi-mirror system and a revolving orthogonal switchable reflector system. In the reciprocating approach, the image delivery mechanisms include a reciprocating reflector system and a zooming optics.

摘要： An apparatus and method for forming images visible to performers and to audiences includes a system for forming virtual images and creating visual effects in a stage setting. This system may include a stage and first and second flat panel video displays. The first flat panel video display is visible to the audience through a portal mirror. The second flat panel video display is not visible to the audience; however, images displayed thereon are reflected off of the portal mirror and outwardly to the audience. Finally, a performance area between the back display and the portal mirror is provided for a person or object whereby the audience may see the composite image of the images from the first and second flat panel video displays and the person or object in the performance area on-stage. Alternatively, images on a flat panel video display may be reflected off of a portal mirror so that they are visible in the performance area to a person there.

摘要： A reflection type projector includes a light source, a micro mirror device having many micromirrors two-dimensionally arranged, a separation prism and a projection lens. The separation prism is disposed between the light source and the micro mirror device. The separation prism is provided with a first surface on which the illumination light is incident, a second surface whose half part faces to the micro mirror device and the remaining half part is directed to the projection lens, and a third surface. The illumination light passes through the first and second surface to be incident on the micro mirror device. The reflected light from the micro mirror device is incident on the second surface. The separation prism is disposed so that the reflected light by the micromirrors at the ON position totally reflected by the first and third surface and the reflected light by the micromirrors at the OFF position is not totally reflected by the third surfaces. The light totally reflected by the first and third surfaces passes through the second surface to be incident on the projection lens that projects an image onto a screen.

摘要： There is therefore provided according to a presently preferred embodiment of the present invention, a compact and ergonomic computer workstation with a high resolution, wide angle projected display. In an exemplary embodiment, the workstation appears generally to resemble a desk with a deep surface that separates a desk section and a display section including a large projection screen. The desk section includes a desk module with a work area that is preferably shallow and wide with enough surface to accommodate computer input devices and work tools. The work area ends at a barrier between the desk and display sections and is isolated from the display mechanically. The display section includes a preferably self contained projection module consisting of a frame and sub modules of projectors, stands, integral milTors and coordinating mounting hardware that position a group of projectors below the eye line and direct the light output to a front viewing screen. The frame creates a housing for the image source and the projection apparatus that is isolated from the desk section mechanically so that forceful action taken to the desk will not be transmitted to the display section. In operation, the images are overlapped and blended to create a computer viewing and control workstation with a large, high resolution panoramic display that may be comfortably viewed by an individual or several people at the same time. With typically 2.5 or more times the resolution or pixel count of a single monitor display, this form of computer display allows the operator to assemble more visual elements on screen, open more windows, have more programs ruling and see more in a single image.
