A display system requiring no special glasses is useful for 3D images. The parallax barrier display system has superior characteristics, such as having a planar screen and a thin panel. However, a conventional parallax barrier display system has disadvantages such as having images with divided horizontal resolution. We describe a newly developed stereoscopic 3D display with a parallax polarizer barrier. The advantage of the parallax polarizer barrier is that the resolution of presented parallax images is much greater than that of a conventional display and see-through 3D images can be observed, because the 3D screen can multiplex projected images with horizontal and vertical polarization to display stereo views.
