Abstract
A 3D image display device includes: a display panel that includes a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix form; and a view point division part that divides the plurality of pixels into a plurality of corresponding view points. The view point division part includes a plurality of view point division units each associated with a lenticular lens tilted at an inclination angle and an inclination angle changing unit for changing the inclination angles of the plurality of the view point division units to correspond to a portrait mode or a landscape mode. The view point division part and the display panel are configured so that a same optimal viewing distance is calculated in portrait mode and landscape mode.

A 3D image display device, comprising:
- a display panel that includes a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix form;
- and
- a view point division part that divides the plurality of pixels into a plurality of corresponding view points,
- wherein the view point division part includes:
- a plurality of view point division units, each associated with a lenticular lens tilted at an inclination angle;
- and
- an inclination angle changing unit configured to change the inclination angles of the plurality of the view point division units to correspond to a portrait mode or a landscape mode, and
- the view point division part and the display panel are configured so that a same optimal viewing distance (OVD) is calculated in portrait mode and landscape mode.
A 3D image display device, comprising:
- a view point division part that divides a plurality of pixels into a plurality of corresponding view points, wherein the view point division part includes:
- a plurality of view point division units having a lenticular lens shape tilted according to an inclination angle;
- and
- an inclination angle changing unit configured to change the inclination angles of the plurality of the view point division units to correspond to a portrait mode or a landscape mode, wherein
- the inclination angle in portrait mode is defined according to a value obtained by multiplying a first coefficient by a first ratio between a horizontal pitch of a pixel and a vertical pitch of the pixel,
- the inclination angle in landscape mode is defined according to a value obtained by multiplying a second coefficient by a reciprocal of the first ratio,
- a second ratio between a horizontal lens pitch of the lenticular lens and a vertical lens pitch of the lenticular lens is the first ratio multiplied by a ratio between a function of two variables used to determine the first coefficient and a function of two variables used to determine the second coefficient, and
- an optimal viewing distance is the same in portrait mode and landscape mode.
