We have proposed several light-field (integral imaging) 3D display systems that use a micro lens array or pinhole array to display whole 3D rays from a single shot of the elemental image and show multiple views of 3D scenes without requiring special glasses to view the scenes. We also developed several holographic 3D display systems and waveguides to show more realistic 3D images. Recently we have expanded our interest to implementation of improved virtual reality 3D displays including near-eye display and compact head-mounted displays.
