Abstract:
An autostereoscopic 3D display comprises a first unit (503) for generating an intermediate 3D image. The intermediate 3D image comprises a plurality of regions and the first unit (503) is arranged to generate a first number of image blocks of pixel values corresponding to different view directions for the region regions. The number of image blocks is different for some regions of the plurality of regions. A second unit (505) generates an output 3D image comprising a number of view images from the intermediate 3D image, where each of the view images correspond to a view direction. The display further comprises a display arrangement (301) and a driver (507) for driving the display arrangement (301) to display the output 3D image. An adaptor (509) is arranged to adapt the number of image blocks for a first region in response to a property of the intermediate 3D image or a representation of a three dimensional scene from which the first image generating unit (503) is arranged to generate the intermediate image.
