Abstract
A display device includes a display section and a video signal generating section. The display section displays n video pictures in n viewing directions on one and the same screen on a basis of a video signal where n indicates natural number. First particular number of pixels are arranged in a first direction in the display section. The video signal generating section arranges pixels of each of n video source signals at predetermined intervals in a first direction to generate the video signal. Each of the n video source signal indicates a video picture in which second particular number of pixels are arranged in the first direction. The second particular number is less than the first particular number.
Claims25
A display device comprising:
- a display section that displays n video pictures in n viewing directions on one and the same screen on a basis of a video signal where n indicates natural number, first particular number of pixels being arranged in a first direction in the display section;
- and
- a video signal generating section that arranges pixels of each of n video source signals at predetermined intervals in a first direction to generate the video signal, wherein:
- each of the n video source signal indicates a video picture in which second particular number of pixels are arranged in the first direction, and
- the second particular number is less than the first particular number.

A display device comprising:
- a display section that displays n video pictures in n viewing directions on one and the same screen on a basis of a video signal, particular number of pixels being arranged in a first direction in the display section;
- and
- a video signal generation section, wherein:
- when number of the pixels of each of the n video source signals in the first direction is equal to or less than one nth of the particular number where n denotes natural number greater than 1, the video signal generation section arranges pixels of each of the n video source signals at predetermined intervals in the first direction to generate the video signal,
- when the number of the pixels of each of the n video source signals in the first direction is greater than one nth of the particular number, the video signal generation section:
- compresses each of the n video source signals into a modified video source signal;
- and
- arranges the pixels of the modified video source signal at predetermined intervals in the first direction to generate the video signal, and
- number of pixels of the modified video source signal in the first direction is equal to or less than one nth of the particular number.
6 more elements
A display device comprising:
- a screen;
- and
- a viewing direction control section to which a video signal generated from n types of video source signals is input where n denotes natural number, numbers of pixels of the video source signals in a first direction being equal to each other, the viewing direction control section that displays the different n video pictures in the n viewing directions simultaneously, wherein:
- number of pixels of the video signal in the first direction is n times the number of the pixels of each of the n types of the video source signals in the first direction, and
- number of pixels of the screen in the first direction is equal to or greater than that of the video signal in the first direction.
2 more elements
A display method comprising:
- arranging pixels of each of n video source signals at predetermined intervals in a first direction to generate a video signal where n indicates natural number;
- and
- displaying n video pictures in n viewing directions on one and the same screen on a basis of a video signal, wherein
- first particular number of pixels are arranged in a first direction in the screen, and
- each of the n video source signal indicates a video picture in which second particular number of pixels are arranged in the first direction, and
- the second particular number is less than the first particular number.
3 more elements
A display method comprising:
- compressing each of n video source signals, which indicates a video picture in which second particular number of pixels are arranged in a first direction, into a modified video source signal, which indicates a modified video picture in which third particular number of pixels are arranged in the first direction;
- arranging the pixels of each of the n modified video source signals at predetermined intervals in the first direction to generate a video signal;
- and
- displaying the n video pictures in n viewing directions on one and the same screen on a basis of the video signal, first particular number of pixels being arranged in a first direction in the screen, wherein:
- the second particular number is greater than the first particular number, and
- the third particular number is less than the first particular number.
