| Sharp Demonstrates Three-Way LCD |
Imagine three people watching three different TV shows all at once in the same room. Now combine the three TVs into one (and give each person their own headphones, hopefully). Recently Sharp demonstrated an LCD screen that can display three different images when viewed at different angles. Using what is called a parallax barrier, light coming from the LCD separates into three directions. A person viewing the screen from the left, center, or right positions would therefore see three different images. The result: three screens in one. There are plenty of applications for this. The driver of a car can be watching the GPS, and the passengers get their choice of two movies. Hooking up three game consoles and playing a split-screen game without a split screen. And many more. Details about when this technology will be available have not been released. Original article here.
