Abstract
A display apparatus includes: an irradiation section to be irradiated with image light while being driven to cause a three-dimensional image be displayed based on reflected image light in a manner visible to a user using an afterimage effect; a driver that drives the irradiated section; circuitry that acquires two-dimensional image data generated according to at least one of an angle or a position of the irradiation section being driven; and an irradiation device that irradiates the irradiated section with the image light based on the two-dimensional image data that is acquired.
Claims20
A display apparatus, comprising:
- an irradiation screen irradiated with image light while being driven, the image light being reflected by the irradiation screen such that a three-dimensional image is visible to a user via an afterimage effect;
- a motor to drive the irradiation screen;
- circuitry configured to acquire two-dimensional image data generated according to at least one of an angle or a position of the irradiation screen driven by the motor;
- an irradiation device configured to irradiate the irradiation screen with the image light based on the two-dimensional image data acquired by the circuitry;
- and
- a sensor configured to receive a partial image light that is a part of the image light irradiated from the irradiation device, and output a light reception signal based on an intensity of the partial image light, wherein
- the circuitry is further configured to select the two-dimensional image data to be acquired based on the light reception signal and driving cycle information which indicates a driving cycle of the motor.
A method of controlling display, the method comprising:
- driving an irradiation screen irradiated with image light, the image light being reflected by the irradiation screen such that a three-dimensional image is visible to a user via an afterimage effect;
- acquiring two-dimensional image data generated according to at least one of an angle or a position of the irradiation screen;
- irradiating, from an irradiation device, the irradiation screen with the image light based on the two-dimensional image data;
- receiving a partial image light that is a part of the image light irradiated from the irradiation device;
- outputting a light reception signal based on an intensity of the partial image light;
- and
- selecting the two-dimensional image data to be acquired based on the light reception signal and driving cycle information indicating a driving cycle for driving the irradiation screen.
A non-transitory recording medium storing a plurality of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the processors to perform a method comprising:
- driving an irradiation screen irradiated with image light, the image light being reflected by the irradiation screen such that a three-dimensional image is visible to a user via an afterimage effect;
- acquiring two-dimensional image data generated according to at least one of an angle or a position of the irradiation screen;
- irradiating, from an irradiation device, the irradiation screen with the image light based on the two-dimensional image data;
- receiving a partial image light that is a part of the image light irradiated from the irradiation device;
- outputting a light reception signal based on an intensity of the partial image light;
- and
- selecting the two-dimensional image data to be acquired based on the light reception signal and driving cycle information indicating a driving cycle for driving the irradiation screen.
