  We present a spatial thermal display designed to simulate a virtual heat source within a virtual environment. This display gently warms the user's facial skin beneath the HMD (Head-Mounted Display) by utilizing intense visible light emitted from an array of optical fibers connected to an LED array. As the user moves their head, the illuminance distribution changes, creating the illusion of a stable heat source located nearby illuminating the face. In our demonstration, participants have the opportunity to experience the sensation of warmth emanating from a campfire or the sun within a virtual environment. 
     
IDEMO-2 High-Brightness µLEDs from InGaN/GaN Pyramidal Structure Arrays
Per Olof Holtz1
1. Polar Light Tech AB (Sweden)
  µLEDs based on individual InGaN/GaN pyramidal quantum structures are obtained by performing a novel bottom-up re-growth process on lithographically patterned SiN-masked GaN templates. The new 3D µLED-structures with quantum wells on the pyramidal facettes as emitters can be manufactured down to um-size. We have recently demonstrated pyramidal µLEDs with brightness of ~ 3M nits with an estimated external quantum efficiency of ~3% for emission at 470 nm with band width of 20 nm. The high quality and homogeneous pyramidal µLED structures combined with the flexibility of selective activation paves a promising route to µLED applications within AR based HUDs/HMDs.

  We will demonstrate the spatial blending optical system that dynamically changes the contents of the display according to the user's viewpoint using two sets of polarized AIRR (p-AIRR). p-AIRR consists of a reflective polarizer, a light source tablet, and a retro-reflector. The optical system is arranged so that the image formation positions of the aerial images formed by the left and right p-AIRR systems overlap. The user can observe different information on different blend ratios for each observation point on the left and right.
     
IDEMO-4 Invited Display Measurement and Gamut Rings

Related IDW ’ 23 paper: FMC11-3L
  Display color capability has traditionally been represented by a triangular area on an xy or u'v' chromaticity diagram. However, chromaticity diagrams cannot show color gamut because they lack the critical third dimension of luminance/lightness. Hence, the area is referred to as a chromaticity gamut, not color gamut. Gamut rings have been developed and standardized (@IEC&CIE&ICDM) to express true color capability by showing lightness, chroma, and hue on a 2D diagram. This high-speed automated prototype measures and calculates true color gamut and outputs gamut rings and their intersection to a reference color space, all within 60 seconds.

The ALF camera system comprises a dihedral corner reflector array to form aerial images of the objects, lens array, and high-resolution digital camera. We demonstrate real-time integral three-dimensional (3D) capture and display system using integral 3D display and moving objects. Moreover, we show the possibilities of highly realistic glasses-free 3D video communication system using ALF camera and integral 3D display.

1. Nagaoka University of Technology (Japan)
  Conventional aerial displays have a narrow viewing field, resulting in poor contact rates when used as advertisements. We demonstrate an aerial display viewable from all horizontal directions like an advertising column by using AIRR. By rotating the AIRR structure at high speed and connecting the afterimages of the aerial images by time-division display, a cylindrical aerial image can be realized. We rotate the rotating part at 150 rpm and display images at 120 fps on the monitor. From this parameter, a cylindrical aerial image with 16 aerial images is displayed at 10 fps.

Hiroto Oishi1, Shiro Suyama1, Hirotsugu Yamamoto1
1. Utsunomiya University (Japan)
  We will demonstrate the system that presents two aerial images on an arc 3D display. Arc 3D display is a technology that presents floating images by illuminating a single light source on an arc 3D substrate with arc-shaped scratches. In this demonstration, the observer will perceive floating images with different floating distances by illuminating two light sources onto the arc 3D substrate as shown in Figure 1. The observer will perceive two overlapped floating images when observing from in front of two floating images with different floating distances due to different motion parallax when the observer moves horizontally.

Related IDW ’ 23 paper: PRJ3/FMC3-4
  We aim to utilize aerial imaging by retro-reflection (AIRR) for transport infrastructure. Aerial signage in transportation system requires a long floating distance. In this case, the distance of the light source in the AIRR optical system has to be increased, which increases the size of the device. To implement aerial signage with a long floating distance within a limited footprint, we propose AIRR optics combined with a Fresnel lens. The distance from the beam splitter to the aerial image is much longer than the distance from the splitter to the light source, by using a Fresnel lens. This makes the aerial image longer and the device thinner. We demonstrate a prototype to confirm our optical design.

We generate a hologram based on a holographic stereogram technique, where we use the light field acquired by our SHW camera. The generated hologram is displayed on an SLM. It is worth noting that our system works in real time. Thanks to the high angular resolution of the light field, comfortable 3D perception can be achieved.

  The 10.1 inch prototype using high-sensitive force sensor is novel steering wheel with on-screen buttons. This prototype realizes on-screen buttons with the same usability as mechanical buttons. By combining our high-sensitive force sensor technology with button-shaped bumps cover and haptics feedback, users can also perform input operations without looking at the screen. Specifically, our technology enables blind input operation by (1) “searching” with the uneven cover, (2) "deciding" with the press operation, and (3) “confirming” with haptics and sound. Future, the many physical buttons that have been installed up to now will be consolidated and replaced with our novel on-screen buttons.

  A new gamut rings color scope provides a means to simultaneously visualize the distribution of lightness, chroma, and hue attributes in a single 2D diagram, unlike traditional CIE chromaticity scopes and vector scopes. In the field of video production, the perceptually intuitive visualization is expected to facilitate more efficient and effective color grading with smoother communication between colorists and directors. With further development of wide gamut display technologies and effective production, I hope that the advantages of wide gamut displays will be better understood by the market as well.

1. NHK (Japan)
Related IDW ’ 23 paper: 3DSA3/3D3-2
  Eye tracking technology is often used to expand the viewing angle of 3D displays. However, when eye-tracking is compromised in 3D display owing to the deterioration of the lighting conditions of the observer's face, motion blur, or movement of the face outside the camera view, a discontinuous viewing zone is formed. Combining face image detection with inertial sensor information can lead to a robust eye-tracking function for mobile 3D display. Participants of this demonstration will be able to experience a more natural viewing angle expansion effect with eye tracking on a mobile light field 3D display compared to traditional ones.
