Abstract
A stereoscopic display system, method and computer program product are provided. In use, display content intended for a first eye is displayed utilizing a first portion of a display. Further, display content intended for a second eye is displayed utilizing a second portion of the display that is different from the first portion of the display.
Claims31
A method, comprising:
- displaying display content intended for a first eye utilizing a first portion of a display device;
- and
- displaying display content intended for a second eye utilizing a second portion of the display device that is different from the first portion of the display device;
- wherein the second portion of the display device is only partially non-inclusive of the first portion of the display device;
- wherein at least one physical aspect of the display device is identified and a delay is selected based on the at least one physical aspect of the display device, where the at least one physical aspect of the display device, on which the selection of the delay is based, includes at least one of:
- a model of the display device, a brand of the display device, and a mechanical aspect of the display device;
- wherein after the delay, a first eye shutter of stereoscopic glasses is triggered to take an open orientation for viewing the display content intended for the first eye or a second eye shutter of the stereoscopic glasses is triggered to take an open orientation for viewing the display content intended for the second eye;
- wherein the delay is further based on a timing associated with a mode of operation of the display, where a first mode of operation of the display has a corresponding first resolution and first timing and a second mode of operation of the display has a corresponding second resolution and second timing, and further where the delay includes a first delay for the first mode of operation and the delay includes a second delay for the second mode of operation.
5 more elements
A computer program embodied on a non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising:
- computer code for displaying display content intended for a first eye utilizing a first portion of a display device;
- and
- computer code for displaying display content intended for a second eye utilizing a second portion of the display device that is different from the first portion of the display device;
- wherein the second portion of the display device is only partially non-inclusive of the first portion of the display device;
- wherein the computer program product is operable such that at least one physical aspect of the display device is identified and a delay is selected based on the at least one physical aspect of the display device, where the at least one physical aspect of the display device, on which the selection of the delay is based, includes at least one of:
- a model of the display device, a brand of the display device, and a mechanical aspect of the display device;
- wherein the computer program product is operable such that after the delay, a first eye shutter of stereoscopic glasses is triggered to take an open orientation for viewing the display content intended for the first eye or a second eye shutter of the stereoscopic glasses is triggered to take an open orientation for viewing the display content intended for the second eye;
- wherein the delay is further based on a timing associated with a mode of operation of the display, where a first mode of operation of the display has a corresponding first resolution and first timing and a second mode of operation of the display has a corresponding second resolution and second timing, and further where the delay includes a first delay for the first mode of operation and the delay includes a second delay for the second mode of operation.
5 more elements
A system, comprising:
- a driver for controlling a display device to display content intended for a first eye utilizing a first portion of the display, and to display content intended for a second eye utilizing a second portion of the display device that is different from the first portion of the display device;
- wherein the second portion of the display device is only partially non-inclusive of the first portion of the display device;
- wherein the system is operable such that at least one physical aspect of the display device is identified and a delay is selected based on the at least one physical aspect of the display device, where the at least one physical aspect of the display device, on which the selection of the delay is based, includes at least one of:
- a model of the display device, a brand of the display device, and a mechanical aspect of the display device;
- wherein the system is operable such that after the delay, a first eye shutter of stereoscopic glasses is triggered to take an open orientation for viewing the display content intended for the first eye or a second eye shutter of the stereoscopic glasses is triggered to take an open orientation for viewing the display content intended for the second eye;
- wherein the delay is further based on a timing associated with a mode of operation of the display, where a first mode of operation of the display has a corresponding first resolution and first timing and a second mode of operation of the display has a corresponding second resolution and second timing, and further where the delay includes a first delay for the first mode of operation and the delay includes a second delay for the second mode of operation.

A method, comprising:
- displaying display content intended for a first eye utilizing a first portion of a display;
- and
- displaying display content intended for a second eye utilizing a second portion of the display that is different from the first portion of the display;
- wherein the second portion of the display is only partially non-inclusive of the first portion of the display;
- wherein at least one physical aspect of the display is identified and a delay is selected based on the at least one physical aspect of the display, where the at least one physical aspect of the display, on which the selection of the delay is based, includes at least one of:
- a model of the display, a brand of the display, and a mechanical aspect of the display;
- wherein after the delay, a first eye shutter of stereoscopic glasses is triggered to take an open orientation for viewing the display content intended for the first eye or a second eye shutter of the stereoscopic glasses is triggered to take an open orientation for viewing the display content intended for the second eye;
- wherein the delay is further based on a timing associated with a mode of operation of the display, where a first mode of operation of the display has a corresponding first resolution and first timing and a second mode of operation of the display has a corresponding second resolution and second timing, and further where the delay includes a first delay for the first mode of operation and the delay includes a second delay for the second mode of operation.
