Abstract
A see-through display apparatus and a method thereof are provided. The see-through display apparatus includes: a screen which changes its transparency by varying its light scattering properties; a projector which projects an image onto the screen; and a control unit which controls a change of transparency of the screen. Accordingly, an image can be clearly displayed on the screen by controlling light scattering and non-scattering states of the screen, and also a user can monitor the external environment through the screen.

14. A method of displaying an image projected from a projector onto a screen, whose state shifts between a light scattering state and a light non-scattering state, the method including:
-
determining a cycle of the light scattering state and the light non-scattering state of the screen; and varying the light scattering state and the light non-scattering state of the screen according to the determined cycle and projecting the image from the projector while the screen is in the light scattering state. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)
