Abstract:
1. An arrangement for the spatial display of a scene or object, comprising an imaging device with a great number of pixels in a raster of rows and columns, in which the pixels render bits of partial information from at least three views of the scene or object, and an array of filter elements arranged in rows and columns, part of which are transparent to light of specified wavelength ranges, and the remaining part are opaque to light, the array being arranged in front of or behind the imaging device with the pixels, so that propagation directions are given for the light emitted by the pixels, and in which each pixel corresponds with several filter elements assigned to it, or each filter element corresponds with several pixels assigned to it, in such a way that each straight line connecting the area center of a visible segment of the pixel and the area center of a visible segment of the filter element corresponds to a propagation direction, and in which, within a viewing space in which observers located, the propagation directions intersect at a great number of intersection points, each of which represents an observer's position, so that the observer at any of these positions will predominantly see bits of partial information from a first selection of views with a first eye, and predominantly bits of partial information from a second selection of views with a second eye, wherein in at least a segment of the array, the ratio between the areas covered by filter elements transparent to light of specified wavelength ranges and the total area of all filter elements, multiplied by the average number of the different views displayed per row of the raster of pixels, is greater than one.
