Abstract:
1. An autostereoscopic display comprising: a pixellated transflective spatial light modulator comprising at least one first region, at least one second region, and a plurality of pixels; a backlight; an arrangement for substantially preventing transmission of light through said at least one first region of said modulator to an autostereoscopic viewing region of said display; and a controller for setting at least some of said pixels of said at least one first region to a first predetermined transmissivity and for setting at least some of said pixels of said at least one second region of said modulator to a second predetermined transmissivity less than said first transmissivity, said controller being further arranged to set said at least some of said pixels of said at least one second region of said modulator to a transmissivity according to a user selected crosstalk level for assessing crosstalk due to a change in the amount of reflected light relative to transmitted light in conjunction with the transflective spatial light modulator by the appearance of said at least one first and second regions.
