Download or read book Development of Lightweight Infinity Optics Display for Field Evaluation written by and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reflective optical infinity display system was designed and fabricated. Special features of the display include very large plastic mirrors and a high-brightness, high-resolution television monitor. The plastic mirrors provided a large weight reduction compared to their glass equivalents and the monitor provided the very high brightness levels that this type of display requires. Size of the overall display system was largely established by the requirement that the unit be designed to operate with a C-130E simulator. (Author).

Download or read book Cameras and Display Systems Towards Photorealistic 3D Holography written by Jin Li and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-26 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents recent advances in three-dimensional (3D) imaging and display frameworks, encompassing three categories of 3D imaging and display technologies. The first category is nonphotorealistic 3D approaches based on conventional optical cameras to implement 3D stereoscopic observation of a scene. In the context of nonphotorealistic 3D imaging and reconstruction systems, the authors introduce general principles and also demonstrate camera calibration for 3D imaging, smart cameras, and full-link imaging methods using the optical modulation transfer function to improve imaging quality in conventional cameras. The second category is based on light-ray light field technology to achieve photorealistic 3D imaging and displays. In the context of light-ray light field systems, two approaches capable of light-ray light field 3D imaging by utilizing a camera array or a lens array are demonstrated. Accordingly, light-ray light field display approaches comprising head-mounted displays and integral displays are also introduced. The third category is also photorealistic 3D imaging and display technology, which is based on holography (i.e., diffraction or wavefront light field). In the corresponding holographic displays, the authors introduce 3D holographic displays from three elements: algorithms, devices, and systems, involving fast hologram generation algorithms, wide-viewing-angle display systems, and metasurface holography, etc. Including an investigative roadmap for future progress in optical imaging and 3D display systems, this book is essential reading for scientists and engineers in academia and industry who are interested in next-generation imaging and display concepts for 3D visual sensing systems.

Download or read book Research in the Development and Application of Nonglass Optical Infinity Display Techniques for Visual Simulation written by James A. Horton and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infinity display devices possess many desirable properties than enhance the training value of aircraft flight simulators. In the past, little has been done to apply reflective infinity display techniques to the problem of wide-angle visual simulation. This is primarily because glass mirrors were necessary to obtain the needed optical quality. These mirrors were heavy, fragile, expensive, and took a long time to manufacture. Additional support structures and control systems required by glass mirrors only added to the cost and complexity. Objectives of the nonglass infinity display research program were to study wide-angle display system concepts develop high-quality nonglass mirrors and fabrication techniques, build a prototype display system, and define cathode ray tube characteristics needed for the display. A prototype unit using nonglass mirrors was fabricated having a 120-degree horizontal field of view and a 45-degree vertical field. (Author).
