ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method for displaying three-dimensional images. In the method light beams (Le) are associated to several different screen points (P) of a screen (20). The light beams (Le) produce different views associated to different emission directions (E). The emission directions (E) are associated to the individual screen points (P). The light beams (Le) are generated by projecting light beams (Ld), according to the angle of the adjacent emitting directions. According to the invention, light beams (Le) without viewing direction information are generated, essentially simultaneously, with pixels (Cd) having different co-ordinates. These pixels (Cd) are pixels of a two-dimension display (50), and they are associated to different emitting directions (E) of the appropriate screen points (P). The light beams (Le) produced by the pixels (Cd) of the display (50) with different co-ordinates are imaged simultaneously in different deflection directions (D), as a function of the co-ordinates of the pixels (Cd) producing the light beams (Le). The subject of the invention is an apparatus implementing the above method.
