Abstract:
A reconfigurable parallax barrier panel comprising an electro-optic material has first and second regions. The parallax barrier panel is configured in a first mode to address the first and second electrodes on the basis of at least one received drive signal such that: the first electrodes define, in the first region of the panel, a first parallax barrier array selected from a plurality of predetermined parallax barrier arrays; and the second electrodes define, in the second region of the panel, independently of the first parallax barrier array, a second parallax barrier array selected from the plurality of predetermined parallax barrier arrays, the second parallax barrier array being different to the first parallax barrier array. To obtain a good autostereoscopic 3-D viewing zone the pitch of a parallax barrier would ideally vary over the width of the parallax barrier panel as a function of viewing distance. This is impracticable to obtain in a practical parallax barrier panel, but the present invention can provide a change in barrier pitch at the boundary between the first region and the second region, and this effectively mimics a pitch that varies over the width of the parallax barrier panel as a function of viewing distance. A parallax barrier panel of the invention can provide improved 3-D viewing when the parallax barrier panel is incorporated in a display.

Claim (Index 10):
A panel as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein a first subset of the first electrodes is disposed over one of either the first or second substrate, an insulating layer is disposed over the first subset of the first electrodes, and a second subset of the first electrodes is disposed over the insulating layer, first electrodes of the second subset being offset, in the second direction, from first electrodes of the first subset.
