METAVISTA3D SECURES JAPANESE PATENT FOR ADVANCED AUTOSTEREOSCOPIC DISPLAY TECHNOLOGY
Metavista3D Inc. has received confirmation of a Japanese patent for its innovative autostereoscopic display technology (Japanese application No. 2021-536320, based on PCT/EP2019/086953). The patent covers a device with an integral-imaging optical element, a breakthrough that enhances display performance and image clarity.
This technology addresses a critical issue in display design: the visibility of the black matrix -- the spaces between pixels that can obscure detail, particularly in small objects such as text. By preventing the enlargement of these gaps, Metavista3D's technology improves the sharpness and depth perception of displayed images, especially in 3-D content.
This patent was filed several years ago, but it takes a long time for companies to receive final approval. Through oppositions, these patents are some times challenged by competitors, causing delays in the final confirmation.
The patent describes three embodiments to achieve this result:
- First embodiment: black stripes printed on the rear side of a lenticular lens system to align with the pixel gaps, effectively concealing the black matrix;
- Second embodiment: removal of lenticular lenses at the pixel gaps, further eliminating the visibility of the black matrix;
- Third embodiment: an integral-imaging lens system that overlaps only adjacent pixels horizontally, preserving 2-D compatibility while enhancing 3-D display capabilities.
Key advantages of this technology include:
- 2-D backward compatibility;
- Improved readability of small characters;
- Enhanced 3-D visual experience.
"We are thrilled to finally receive this patent confirmation in Japan," said Jeff Carlson, chief executive officer of Metavista3D. "Japan has long been a leader in display technology, and, with companies like Sony at the forefront, this patent strengthens our position in the market by protecting our next-generation optical element structure."
