DISPLAY INCLUDING ELECTROWETTING PRISM ARRAY
First Claim
1. A display comprising:
- a light source;
a 2-dimensional (2D) display which provides an image using light from the light source;
a prism array, wherein a refractive power of one or more prisms of the prism array is adjustable in real time; and
an optical element which increases a refraction of light transmitted therethrough.

Abstract
A display including an electrowetting prism array is provided. The display includes: a light source, a 2-dimensional (2D) display for providing an image using light from the light source, a prism array in which a refractive power of one or more prisms of the prism array is adjustablein real time, and an optical element which increases a refraction of light transmitted therethrough. In the display, the optical element may be disposed in front of or behind the prism array. The optical element may be a convex lens, a Fresnel lens, a holographic optical element (HOE), a diffraction optical element (DOE), or a second electrowetting prism array. The convex lens may be a variable focus lens.
