Abstract

Displays that will be the first generation of glasses-free systems, with the exception of the head-tracked displays described in Chap. 9.3.2, are covered in this chapter. These include both non-head-tracked and various head-tracked approaches. Non-head-tracked displays require the display of increased amounts of information ranging from currently available methods where the number of views presented is typically less than ten to super multi-view and light field displays where up to an effective display resolution of around 100 megapixels is required. Head-tracked displays, although they can be fairly complex, enable the minimum of two views only to be displayed for all users to comfortably see stereo.
