Research abstract
Not Available In this SBIR program, Reveo proposes to develop and commercialize the world's first mass-market 3D display technology. There does not currently exist a technically and commercially viable 3D technology having no viewing angle or encumbering eyewear restriction - holographic and varifocal techniques are far too expensive and cumbersome. Leveraging Reveo's extensive experience in developing and commercializing liquid crystal (LC) technologies, Reveo proposes a 3D display technique utilizing an innovative variable focal length LC micro-lens array. When coupled with AMLCD technology, each array element focuses its pixel's light at the required depth. The total effect is an imaged shape in free space emitting light in a broad range of angles from each point of its surface requiring no encumbering eyewear to view. In Phase I, Reveo will develop two elements micro-lens array, which will then be used in conjunction with an AMLCD array and a static glass micro-lens array to make a 2x2 element 3D demonstration display that exhibits all of the important properties of an ideal 3D display discussed above. In this manner, the feasibility of this frontier technology will be established.
