Abstract
This thesis is about ‘Dual View’ displays. These are displays that can show different
images to different people. For example, the driver of a car could view a GPS map,
whilst the passenger who looks at the display from a different angle, could watch a

This thesis is about ‘Dual View’ displays. These are displays that can show different
images to different people. For example, the driver of a car could view a GPS map,
whilst the passenger who looks at the display from a different angle, could watch a
movie.
This thesis describes some of the research that took the project from an idea to a refined
product. Sharp’s first dual view display is prototyped, and problems such as crosstalk
between the two views are seen. These problems are analysed and rectified to bring the
device up to a high standard. In July 2005 Sharp used this technology to launch the
world’s first dual view product.
Since then a new design of dual view display has been investigated. This design is
theoretically optimised and experimentally tested. The new design is shown to provide
dual view with greater head freedom, greater efficiency, and lower crosstalk than the
original parallax barrier design.
