CONTROLLING A PIXEL ARRAY TO SUPPORT AN ADAPTABLE LIGHT MANIPULATOR
First Claim
1. A display system comprising:
- a pixel array that includes a plurality of display pixels;
an adaptable light manipulator configured to manipulate light that is received from the pixel array;
a manipulator controller configured to modify a configuration of the adaptable light manipulator; and
a pixel array controller configured to change a mapping of a plurality of image pixels from a plurality of respective first subsets of the display pixels to a plurality of respective second subsets of the display pixels in the pixel array to compensate for modification of the configuration of the adaptable light manipulator.

Abstract
A display system is provided that enables three-dimensional images to be displayed. The display system includes an adaptable light manipulator positioned proximate to an image generator to provide an image to a viewer based on light that is received from the image generator. The image generator includes a pixel array. A display controller controls the pixel array to compensate for modification of a configuration of the adaptable light manipulator. The pixel array includes a plurality of display pixels. A plurality of image pixels is rendered to a plurality of respective subsets of the display pixels. The display controller is capable of changing a number of display pixels that represents each image pixel and/or which display pixels or groups thereof correspond to the respective image pixels.

10. A display system comprising:
-
a pixel array that includes a plurality of display pixels; an adaptable light manipulator configured to manipulate light that is received from the pixel array; a manipulator controller configured to modify a configuration of the adaptable light manipulator; and a pixel array controller comprising; a conversion module configured to convert a first plurality of image pixels that corresponds to an N-dimensional representation of an image to a second plurality of image pixels that corresponds to an M-dimensional representation of the image, M≠
N; anda mapping module configured to initially render the first plurality of image pixels to the plurality of display pixels, the mapping module further configured to render the second plurality of image pixels in lieu of the first plurality of image pixels to the plurality of display pixels in response to a determination that the configuration of the adaptable light manipulator is modified. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)
