Next Generation 3D – no glasses required!
Zecotek Display Systems Pte. Ltd ("ZDS") is a subsidiary of Zecotek Photonics Inc.

Zecotek’s proprietary 3D technology powers a new type of high-performance, auto stereoscopic, 3D/2D displays that which provides multiple viewers with true volumetric visualization, exhibiting depth and parallax, over a wide viewing angle, without resorting to special glasses or other user aides. Together with a newly developed split view, Zecotek’s 3D system represents the next generation in 3D viewing. The new split screen feature adds many potential applications, in particular in gaming, as it allows simultaneous viewing by players sitting side by side, where each player would have a completely separate view.    

 

Zecotek is currently demonstrating

their 3D/2D display in Vancouver and Singapore.

System development has now been completed, and a 32-inch pre-production model is currently being demonstrated at our Vancouver offices to potential licensees and OEM’s. Zecotek’s breakthrough 3D/2D display will find extensive applications in many fields ranging from mediacal imaging and CAD to advertising, entertainment and gaming:

  • Medical
  • Entertainment and gaming
  • Advertising
  • Graphics and design
  • Flight simulators and navigation
  • Geology and mapping
  • Military and defense
  • Real estate
  • Air-traffic control

Why Zecotek’s 3DD is the next stage of evolution for 3D systems

Glasses: According to a recent study in consumer attitudes conducted by The Neilson Co for the Cable and Telecommunications Association for Marketing has found that the majority of people surveyed cited the glasses as a reason they were not likely to buy a 3D television and that nearly nine in 10 people worry that it will constrain them from multitasking while the TV is on. It suggests that the true breakthrough for the technology  won't come until sets are developed that allow 3-D viewing without the glasses.

Content: People are also concerned there is not enough 3-D programming available yet to make a purchase worthwhile. Zecotek’s system has technology readily available for immediate commercial uses: geology, medical, security, industrial design as well as commercial signage. Content is not an issue in any of these sectors and in many cases 3D can be a mission critical function.

Gaming. Seven in 10 regular gamers expressed interest in playing games in 3-D, Nielsen said.* Zecotek’s system brings a new split screen feature to gaming and collaborative work activities - all without glasses.

***the Nielsen study was conducted with focus groups and a survey of 425 randomly selected people who answered questions and watched a 30-minute highlight reel of 3-D television. The margin of error is plus or minus 5 percentage points.


About Zecotek’s 3D System.

Zecotek’s 3DD does not require glasses or eye tracking or other extraneous or viewer dependent devices. Unlike conventional stereo systems, which render only two views, Zecotek’s 3DD operates by forming a very large number of perspective views which, together with its wide viewing angle, allows multiple viewers to each have their own unique perspective. This combination of views, viewing angle and the 3DD’s high resolution offer a viewing experience closest to the visual perception of real objects. Zecotek’s 3DD system can be used naturally and effectively with images derived from medical imaging, rendering, geo-physical data, and other industrial and military applications for enhanced situation and process analysis, fast decision making, and problem-solving.

Other unique features of Zecotek’s 3DD include both constant motion parallax and the occlusion effect within the viewing angle. (Motion parallax is the apparent difference in the direction of movement or speed produced when the subject moves relative to his environment. The occlusion effect is the blocking of one object by another opaque or non-transparent object located in front of it but where the hidden object can still be seen if viewed from a different angle, for example, in side view). The combination of motion parallax and the occlusion effect eliminate the sense of imbalance and dizziness which can occur in particular with polarized and shutter-type glasses and which are contributing to concerns over health and safety of 3D viewing.

Zecotek’s 3DD is scalable and offers both small 3D display screens for use in the transportation, personal computing and gaming industries, and large 3D display screens designed to meet the expected demand for industrial, advertisement, medical and home entertainment markets.

Zecotek's 5th generation system has been specifically designed to accommodate the emerging next-generation OLED’s and LED’s and control systems, which will allow for both flat, thin panel 3D displays as well as powerful back projection desk top configurations. 

Zecotek has utilized its world-class expertise in optics to develop a high-performance, auto stereoscopic, 3D/2D display that leverages a highly cost-effective proprietary architecture. Zecotek’s 3D display technology provides multiple viewers with true volumetric visualization – exhibiting depth and parallax, over a wide viewing angle – without resorting to special glasses or other user aides.

Zecotek's 3D/2D Display provides a new level of user interface aimed at a wide range of applications:

  • No glasses or other special equipment required for viewing
  • No head trackingMulti viewers, with each viewer experiencing different perspectives depending on position
  • Viewers will see a changing image when moving within the viewing angle
  • Same high resolution in 2D and 3D modes  

Zecotek's patent pending 3D/2D display fulfills these requirements and offer these additional benefits and features:

  • Extremely small angle between adjacent views resulting in absence of viewing discontinuity or perspective "gaps"
  • Display utilizes off-the-shelf components making it cost effective
  • Scalable design making it customizable depending on application requirements
  • Simultaneous display of 2D and 3D with no loss of details
  • Dynamic control of number of views, viewing angle, and colour depth 

A 32-inch prototype display is currently being demonstrated at our Vancouver and Singapore offices.
