Abstract

This chapter covers the work carried out on head tracked 3-D displays in the past ten years that has been funded by the European Union. These displays are glasses-free (auto-stereoscopic) and serve several viewers who are able to move freely over a large viewing region. The amount of information that is displayed is kept to a minimum with the use of head position tracking, which allows images to be placed in the viewing field only where the viewers are situated so that redundant information is not directed to unused viewing regions. In order to put the work into perspective, a historical background and a brief description of other display types are given first.
