Description

DISPLAY SYSTEM
Field of the Invention
The present invention is related to the field of display systems.
Background of the Invention
While 3D display systems are known to provide highly attractive and effective 3D images for viewers, traditional 3D displays systems require increased image production time and increased equipment cost over traditional 2D display systems. Accordingly, display systems have been developed that provide 2D images in a manner that allows viewers to perceive the 2D images in what approximates the perception of 3D images. One such system implements a plurality of half-mirrors (or one-way mirrors) arranged generally in a pyramid where each half-mirror is configured to reflect light from a projector (located outside the pyramid) away from a center of the pyramid. The projector is generally configured to project different 2D images to each of the half-mirrors so that as a viewer moves around the pyramid, the viewer perceives a change in perspective of the image being viewed as if the image were a 3D image. The overall effect perceived by the viewer includes the perception that the 2D image is floating inside the pyramid. Since the half-mirrors allow viewing of the perceived 3D image along with the natural background of the environment surrounding the pyramid, the 3D perception of the 2D images is greatly enhanced. However, the planar surfaces of the pyramid and the associated support structure for the half-mirrors interrupt the 3D perception of the 2D image as the viewer moves around the pyramid. Also, the system can only provide one point of view of a perceived floating image per half-mirror, further interfering with the 3D perception of the 2D image. Other systems which provide the perception of a 3D image have implemented thick glass plates that produce optical interference patterns resulting in the 3D image effect. However, the thick glass plates greatly reduce the perceived brightness of
the displayed image.
Summary of the Invention
The present invention relates to a display system comprising a display for emitting light and a partial mirror cone having an outer surface generally facing the display, the partial mirror cone being configured to reflect a portion of the light.

Detailed Description of the Invention
A display system according to a first embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in Figure 1. Display system 100 comprises a panel display 102 (liquid crystal display, plasma panel display, or may be replaced by a projector with a screen) and a partial mirror cone 104, wherein partial mirror is intended to mean that the cone reflects part the light to the viewer and transmits part of the light. The partial mirror cone can be a half- mirror. Display system 100 is configured so that a tip end 106 of the partial mirror cone 104 faces a light emitting side 108 of the panel display 102 thereby orienting an outer surface 1 11 of the partial mirror cone 104 toward the panel display 102. The panel display 102 and partial mirror cone 104 are generally oriented with respect to each other so that an angle 1 10 between the outer surface 11 1 of the partial mirror cone 104 and the substantially planar light emitting side 108 is constant about the circumference of the partial mirror cone 104. For example, the angle 1 10 may have a value of 45°. However, angle 110 may be an angle other than 45° or may vary about the circumference of the partial mirror cone 104. However, in other embodiments the partial mirror cone 104 may not be aligned so that the angle between the outer surface 111 of the partial mirror cone 104 and the light emitting side 108 is substantially constant. Further, in alternative embodiments of the present invention, it will be appreciated that a reflective layer of the partial mirror cone 104 may be similarly aligned so that a central axis 112 of the partial mirror cone 104 is directionally aligned with a primary direction of a light beam (not shown) emitted from a imaging device such as a projector (not shown) or other light emitting device (not necessarily a panel display) suitable for transmitting an image. The partial mirror cone 104 is shaped so that a cone angle 114 as measured between the central axis 112 and the outer surface 111 of the partial mirror cone 104 is substantially 45° about the entire circumference of the partial mirror cone 104. However, as later explained, the cone angle 114 may be an angle other than 45° or may vary about the circumference of the partial mirror cone 104. Partial mirror cone 104 is oriented such that the central axis 112 is substantially centered on a center of the light emitting side 108. While tip end 106 is illustrated as being truncated, in alternative embodiments, the tip end 106 may substantially form a point.
Generally, display system 100 utilizes 2D images to create a visual display that is perceived by a viewer to be a free-floating 3D image. As shown in Figure 2, the true light path 200 of a light beam 202 emitted from the panel display 102 comprises a first leg 204 where the light beam 202 travels from the light emitting side 108 of the panel display 102 to the reflective partial mirror cone 104. The true light path 200 further comprises a second leg 206 where the light beam 202 is reflected from the reflective partial mirror cone 104 and to a viewer 208. However, as shown in Figure 3, the light beam 202 is perceived by the viewer 208 to travel along a perceived light path 210 from within an internal volume 212 of the partial mirror cone 104 and directly to the viewer 208.
Referring now to Figure 4, in combination with the above-described panel display 102 and partial mirror cone 104 and their described orientations with respect to each other, the panel display 102 is configured to project a 2D image 306 using a polar coordinate system 300. Figure 4 depicts the layout of the polar coordinate system 300 as it is used with respect to the light emitting side 108 of the panel display 102. The polar coordinate system 300 comprises a pole 302 and a polar axis 304 from which a radial coordinate r and an angular coordinate θ are determined, respectively. As shown, the panel display 102 may project a plurality of identical 2D images 306 onto the partial mirror cone 104 at various angular displacements about the pole 302 from the polar axis 304. In this embodiment, the 2D images 306 are shown as being projected onto the partial mirror cone 104 at eight different locations. This arrangement provides the illusion of a free-floating 3D image visible from various locations about the pole 302. The continuous structure of the partial mirror cone 104 offers viewing of the free-floating 3D image unobstructed by bulky structural supports as a viewer moves around the partial mirror cone 104. It will be appreciated that in alternative embodiments, more or fewer than eight separate identical 2D images 306 may be reflected from the partial mirror cone 104, thereby providing more or fewer optimal viewpoints about the partial mirror cone 104, respectively. It will further be appreciated that a left-right viewing angle of a viewer may be increased by increasing the cone angle 114 or decreased by decreasing the cone angle 1 14. Where the cone angle 114 is an angle other than 45°, the 2D images 306 emitted by the panel display 102 will appear distorted from their originally captured and intended dimensions. To prevent such distortion in the free-floating 3D images, the 2D images 306 may be appropriately manipulated using the above-described polar coordinate system 300.
Referring now to Figure 5, a display system 400 according to another embodiment of the present invention comprises an upper panel display 402, a lower panel display 404, an upper partial mirror cone 406, and a lower partial mirror cone 408. The bases of the upper partial mirror cone 406 and lower partial mirror cone 408 are adjacent each other and are generally aligned along a shared central axis 410. Upper panel display 402 and upper partial mirror cone 406 cooperate in a substantially similar manner as panel display 102 and partial mirror cone 104 to provide a viewer the perception of a free-floating 3D image. Similarly, lower panel display 404 and lower partial mirror cone 408 cooperate in a substantially similar manner as panel display 102 and partial mirror cone 104 to provide a viewer the perception of a free-floating 3D image. However, display system 400 differs from display system 100 in that an entire free-floating 3D image comprising an upper segment and a lower segment. Upper panel display 402 and upper partial mirror cone 406, together, only provide the upper segment of the free-floating 3D image while lower panel display 404 and lower partial mirror cone 408, together, only provide the lower segment of the free-floating 3D image. The display system 400 provides a larger display area than the display area provided by display system 100 without decreasing image resolution (where partial mirror cone 102, upper partial mirror cone 406, and lower partial mirror cone 408 are each substantially the same size). It will be appreciated that the entire display system 400 may be rotated, thereby allowing viewing of the free-floating 3D image from a variety of vantage points with respect to the orientation of the display system 400. For example, display system 400 may be rotated to a horizontal position so that the upper panel display 402 is located leftward from the lower panel display 404, as perceived from the vantage point of a viewer. In this horizontal position, the entire free-floating 3D image would comprise a leftward segment and a rightward segment. The display system 400 may be oriented in any suitable manner with respect to a viewer and is not limited to the vertical orientation shown in Figure 5 or the horizontal orientation described above.
Referring now to Figure 6, a display system 500 according to another embodiment of the present invention comprises an upper panel display 502, a lower panel display 504, a partial mirror prolate spheroid upper half 506, and a partial mirror prolate spheroid lower half 508. The partial mirror prolate spheroid upper half 506 and partial mirror prolate spheroid lower half 508 are shown as being joined at a mid-plane 510. The display system 500 operates substantially similarly to the display system 400. However, there are significant differences in geometry between the cones and the prolate spheroid. Accordingly, the 2D images to be projected from upper panel display 502 and lower panel display 504 are manipulated using a polar coordinate system substantially similar to polar coordinate system 300 to prevent unwanted distortion that would otherwise result due to the non-linear surface of the partial mirror prolate spheroid upper half 506 and partial mirror prolate spheroid lower half 508. It will be appreciated that the entire display system 500 may be rotated, thereby allowing viewing of the free-floating 3D image from a variety of vantage points with respect to the orientation of the display system 500. For example, display system 500 may be rotated to a horizontal position so that the upper panel display 502 is located leftward from the lower panel display 504, as perceived from the vantage point of a viewer. In this horizontal position, the entire free-floating 3D image would comprise a leftward segment and a rightward segment. The display system 500 may be oriented in any suitable manner with respect to a viewer and is not limited to the vertical orientation shown in Figure 6 or the horizontal orientation described above.
The foregoing illustrates some of the possibilities for practicing the invention. Many other embodiments are possible within the scope and spirit of the invention. Therefore, it is intended that the foregoing description be regarded as illustrative rather than limiting, and that the scope of the invention is given by the appended claims together with their full range of equivalents.
