3-d display using led pixel layers

Abstract

Microscopic LED dice are printed in groups, to form pixels, on a thin transparent substrate, and the LEDs in each pixel are sandwiched between two transparent conductor layers to connect the LEDs in parallel. This forms a single 2-dimensional pixel layer that is substantially transparent, where the pixels are individually addressable. Multiple pixel layers are stacked with an index-matched spacer layer therebetween to form a 3-dimensional array of pixels. If the 3-D display is formed as a cube, the viewing window may be the top pixel layer. All pixel layers are simultaneously viewable through the viewing window since each layer is transparent. Accordingly, 3-dimensional images may be displayed. In another embodiment, one or more LED pixels layers are folded, like an accordion, to achieve a stereoscopic effect so that the left and right eyes see different images to convey depth.
