Abstract:
1. A three-dimensional (3D) display apparatus, comprising: a display device configured to output polarized lights of one or more images with a first polarization direction; a liquid crystal panel coupled to the display device and containing a plurality of pixel display areas to receive the polarized lights from the display device with the first polarization direction, the display areas capable of being individually controlled by corresponding active switches to be in a first state in which the first polarization direction is transformed into a second polarization direction different from the first polarization direction or to be in a second state in which the first polarization direction is maintained; and a lens unit coupled to the liquid crystal panel and configured to guide the polarized lights with the second polarization direction to pass through for 2D display and to guide polarized lights with the first polarization direction into predetermined transmitting directions for 3D display.
