Abstract

We present anl omnidirectional 3D autostereoscopic aerial display with continuous parallax. Integral photography (IP) combined with polyhedron-shaped aerial imaging plates (AIPs) is utilized to achieve an extended view angle of 3D aerial images. With optical theoretical analysis and an aerial in situ rotation design, a 3D aerial display with an enlarged viewing angle is realized. In particular, the proposed 3D aerial display can realize any assigned angle within 360 deg. We also optimize the aerial display with artifact image removal and floating image brightness analysis. Experiments are performed to prove the 3D aerial display with full-motion parallax, continuous viewpoints, and multiplayer interaction. The proposed system is an attractive prospect of non-contact interaction and multi-person collaboration.
