Abstract
A display medium 1 capable of displaying different sets of contents with light beams in a plurality of directions, includes a first layer L1 and a second layer L2 each having a color region to which a color is given. The light beams in the plurality of directions display a plurality of sets of contents corresponding to the plurality of directions, on a basis of parts of the first layer L1 and the second layer L2 through which the light beams pass.
Claims8
A processing device configured to determine a color to be given to a process-targeted cell in a layer of a display medium capable of displaying different sets of contents with light beams in a plurality of directions,
- wherein the display medium comprises a first layer and a second layer each having a color region to which a color is given, wherein the light beams in the plurality of directions are configured to display a plurality of sets of contents corresponding to the plurality of directions, on a basis of parts of the first layer and the second layer through which the light beams pass,
- wherein the light beams in the plurality of directions include a first light beam in a first direction and a second light beam in a second direction,
- wherein each layer of the first layer and the second layer comprises a transparent member, and each layer of the first layer and the second layer includes the color region and a transparent region to which no color is given,
- wherein each light beam of the first light beam in the first direction and the second light beam in the second direction is configured to pass through the color region of at least one of the first layer and the second layer, and at least one of the first light beam in the first direction and the second light beam in the second direction is configured to pass through the color region of the first layer and the color region of the second layer,
- wherein the first layer and the second layer are virtually divided into a plurality of cells, each cell of the plurality of cells has the color region and the transparent region, and the color region is positioned away from edges of each cell,
- wherein the processing device comprises a process controller configured to:
- execute a first process and a second process to determine a color of process-targeted cells of the first layer and the second layer;
- in the first process, set initial color values to a process-targeted cell of the second layer, and optimize a color of a process-targeted cell of the first layer to configure:
- a difference between a color observed with a first light beam in a first direction through the process-targeted cell of the first layer and a color of first contents small;
- and
- a difference between a color observed with a second light beam in a second direction through the process-targeted cell of the second layer and a color of second contents small;
- and
- in the second process, set the color optimized in the first process to the process-targeted cell of the first layer, and optimize a color of a process-targeted cell of the second layer to configure:
- a difference between a color observed with the first light beam in the first direction through the process-targeted cell of the first layer and a color of the first contents small;
- and
- a difference between a color observed with the second light beam in the second direction through the process-targeted cell of the second layer and a color of the second contents small.
