VIEWING SIMULATION OF INTEGRAL IMAGING DISPLAY BASED ON WAVE OPTICS

Abstract

We present an accurate model of integral imaging display based on wave optics. The model enables accurate characterization of the display through simulated perceived images by the human visual system. Thus, it is useful to investigate the capabilities of the display in terms of various quality factors such as depth of field and resolution, as well as delivering visual cues such as focus. Furthermore, due to the adopted wave optics formalism, simulation and analysis of more advanced techniques such as wavefront coding for increased depth of field are also possible.
