Abstract

An adaptive Cylindrical Lens Array (ACLA) for a 2D/3D switchable display is demonstrated. The ACLA is based on two transparent liquids of different refractive indexes and an elastic membrane. Driving these two liquids to flow can change the shape of the elastic membrane as well as the focal length. In this design, the gravity effect of liquid can be overcome. An ACLA demo for the 2D/3D switchable display is developed. The experimental result shows that the ACLA demo works as a light splitting and 2D/3D switching component of the 2D/3D switchable display effectively and the 2D/3D switchable display is realized.
