83‐1: Invited Paper: Development of Liquid Crystal Lenses for 3D Displays.

This paper covers the overview of liquid crystal lenses for 3D displays and our latest technology that reduces the switching time of the LC lens. First, a binocular near‐eye DFD display system utilizing binary focus lenses including a liquid crystal layer is described. Then, we review a two‐way multiview 2D/3D display that can achieve 3D images in both landscape and portrait. Finally, for the fast switching time of LC lenses, we report a novel driving method by applying a vertical electric field that achieved 25 times faster turn‐off time than the conventional method.
