| 20090040606 | 3-DIMENSIONAL MOVING IMAGE PHOTOGRAPHING DEVICE FOR PHOTOGRAPHING NEIGHBORING OBJECT - Disclosed is a three-dimensional moving image producing device including a probe including a group of object lenses, a group of relay lenses, and a group of eye lenses arranged in sequence, a camera body located at the rear side of the probe and including a group of magnifying lenses for enlarging an image introduced into the camera body through the probe, and a group of camera lenses and a charge coupled device (CCD) camera for capturing the image, and a transparent panel provided in a space defining an entrance pupil of the group of camera lenses between the probe and the camera body, the transparent panel being tilted by a predetermined inclination angle with respect to an optical axis of the group of camera lenses and having a predetermined refractive index. The transparent panel periodically intercepts around the optical axis of the group of camera lenses. With this configuration, the transparent panel periodically refracts an image passed through the group of eye lenses or passes the image without refraction, so as to acquire two left and right images having different viewpoints from each other. By combining the two images with each other, a three-dimensional image can be produced. | 02-12-2009 |

| 20090168167 | DISPLAY DEVICE AND TERMINAL UNIT USING THE SAME - A display device reduces the image quality degradations by suppressing the effect of the defective alignment regions caused by the spacers while minimizing the aperture ratio lowering, and prevents the image quality change dependent on the observation positions. The display device has a display panel and a lenticular lens. Each unit pixel of the display panel includes the sub-pixel for the left eye and the sub-pixel for the right eye. To keep the pair of substrates at a predetermined gap, spacers are arranged at predetermined positions in the gap. The spacers are stripe-shaped and extended along a direction perpendicular to the image separation axis of the lenticular lens. The spacers are equally overlapped with the sub-pixels for the left eye and those for the right eye. The spacers may be isolated for the respective unit pixels, or the first or second sub-pixels. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20090296212 | MODULAR STEREOSCOPIC RIG - The present invention relates to a rig for a stereoscopic camera system. More specifically, the present invention pertains to a modular stereoscopic rig system. The modular rig system comprises a plurality of interchangeable bases, a first camera mounting module for mounting a first camera to one base and a second camera mounting module for mounting a second camera to the same base. | 12-03-2009 |

| 20120250153 | TWO-LENS DEVICE AND STEREOSCOPIC IMAGING APPARATUS WITH TWO-LENS DEVICE - A two-lens device includes two lens portions that are disposed so as to be laterally aligned, a lens case that supports the two lens portions in a state where a convergence point can be adjusted in order to image a subject as stereoscopic images by the two lens portions, and a filter installation portion at which a single circular optical filter covering the entire surface of the subject side of the two lens portions is installed so as to be attachable and detachable through thread connection on the subject side of the two lens portions of the lens case. | 10-04-2012 |
| 20130286477 | THREE DIMENSIONAL IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS - A three dimensional image display apparatus includes a panel unit, a receiving container and an anti-shock part. The panel unit includes a display panel and an optical panel. The optical panel sorts a left eye image and a right eye image. The receiving container surrounds a side of the panel unit. The anti-shock part is disposed between the panel unit and the receiving container, and restricts movement of the panel unit toward the receiving container. | 10-31-2013 |
| 20140139916 | ELECTRONIC IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS - An electronic image display apparatus has a casing. The casing incorporates objective optical systems and imaging optical systems to form primary images that are observed through eyepiece optical systems. With this configuration, the display apparatus is able to provide images that are observable naturally like images provided by a surgical microscope, thereby improving an observation performance and causing no fatigue on an observer even after a long time of observation. | 05-22-2014 |
| 20140254010 | PROTECTIVE SHELL CAPABLE OF PROVIDING NAKED-EYE 3D IMAGING EFFECT - The present invention relates to a protective shell capable of providing naked-eye 3D imaging effect, and particularly relates to a protective shell of a handheld device capable of providing naked-eye 3D imaging effect to the handheld device. The protective shell includes a shell body and a 3D optical grating sheet. When the handheld device is put into the protective shell, the protective shell can provide a naked-eye 3D imaging effect for the handheld device by putting the 3D optical grating sheet on the display screen of the handheld device. Therefore, the user can see a 3D image on the display screen of the handheld device through the 3D optical grating sheet. | 09-11-2014 |
| 20150124317 | THREE DIMENSIONAL VIRTUAL AND AUGMENTED REALITY DISPLAY SYSTEM - A system may comprise a selectively transparent projection device for projecting an image toward an eye of a viewer from a projection device position in space relative to the eye of the viewer, the projection device being capable of assuming a substantially transparent state when no image is projected; an occlusion mask device coupled to the projection device and configured to selectively block light traveling toward the eye from one or more positions opposite of the projection device from the eye of the viewer in an occluding pattern correlated with the image projected by the projection device; and a zone plate diffraction patterning device interposed between the eye of the viewer and the projection device and configured to cause light from the projection device to pass through a diffraction pattern having a selectable geometry as it travels to the eye. | 05-07-2015 |
