Abstract

A multiview autostereoscopic LCD display with a localized 2D/3D switching function is developed based on the actively switchable parallax barrier technology. This switchable barrier comprises of an electro-optically switchable liquid crystal (LC) and a microretarder. Polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) with switchable clear and diffusing states and twisted nematic liquid crystal (TNLC) with polarization switching function are used as switching devices. The microretarder is prepared by self-developed multibeam laser scanning process, which is clean, friendly to the environment, and easy for scale up and mass production. The influence factors on the image qualities of 3D displays based on LCD panel technology are analyzed and discussed. Some solutions have proposed to solve the commercial application issues.
