Abstract
A three-dimensional display system is disclosed which includes a display target that receives a projected image and that rotates about an axis to form a three-dimensional image from the projected image. The display target has front and back surfaces that meet at locations relative to the axis to form tapered edges. Scanning optics directs light to the display target to form the projected image. A controller controls operation of the display target and the scanning optics.
Claims28
A display target which receives a projected image and which rotates about an axis to form a three-dimensional image from the projected image, the display target comprising front and back surfaces that meet at locations relative to the axis to form tapered edges.
A display apparatus for use in a three-dimensional display system, the display apparatus comprising:
- a translucent host;
- and
- a display target, inside the translucent host, which receives a projected image and which rotates while inside the translucent host to form a three-dimensional image from the projected image, at least a portion of the display target having a thickness on the order of one millimeter (1 mm) or less.
A three-dimensional display system comprising:
- a display target which receives a projected image and which rotates about an axis to form a three-dimensional image from the projected image, the display target having front and back surfaces that meet at locations relative to the axis to form tapered edges;
- scanning optics which directs light to the display target to form the projected image;
- and
- a controller which controls operation of the display target and the scanning optics.
A three-dimensional display system comprising:
- a translucent host;
- a display target, embedded in the translucent host, which receives a projected image and which rotates about an axis to form a three-dimensional image from the projected image, at least a portion of the display target having a thickness on the order of one millimeter (1 mm) or less;
- scanning optics which directs light to the display target to form the projected image;
- and
- a controller which controls operation of the display target and the scanning optics.
