Claim 11:
12. A display system comprising:
a light source configured to emit light;
a display panel configured to form an image;
at least one grating spaced apart from the display panel along a thickness direction of the display system and comprising a plurality of substantially parallel elongated features extending along an in-plane first direction and arranged along an orthogonal in-plane second direction; and
at least one retarder disposed between the at least one grating and the light source and configured to have at least different first and second retardation states, wherein at least in a first plane substantially orthogonal to the display panel, the image formed by the display panel and exiting the display system comprises different first and second intensity profiles versus transmission angle having respective first and second global maxima at different respective first and second transmission angles in response to the respective first and second retardation states of the at least one retarder.
