What Are Unilumin's 3D LED Screen and Display Projects?
3D Video technology has existed for over a hundred years. However, recent advancements have combined LED technology with 3D viewing.
LED 3D screens are LED screens that are manufactured for viewing specially created content in 3D. 3D LED screens come in two varieties: with 3D glasses and without 3D glasses.
LED 3D Screens with glasses are similar to conventional 3D movies that have existed at movie theaters and in-home entertainment systems for decades. The movie screen creates two slightly different perspectives of the same scene that are simultaneously displayed using a technique called stereoscopy. This blurry image is then filtered through special glasses to create the perception of a three-dimensional image. This technology is available and affordable but requires special content and bulky glasses.
3D LED Screens without glasses are a more advanced and convenient technology. Also known as "naked-eye" or "glasses-free" 3D LED displays, these screens create a dazzling 3D effect without requiring viewers to wear any bulky headwear or purchase any additional specialized equipment.
Conventional 3D LED displays work the same as traditional projector-style 3D screens. Two images are presented on the screen using stereoscopy, and specialized glasses merge the images to create a 3D experience. The only difference between 3D LED displays and traditional projector-style displays is the use of LEDs.
However, the technology behind the latest naked-eye 3D LED displays is more advanced. It functions on the same fundamental principle as traditional 3D and LED technology: the manipulation of light angles to separate left and right images. Both of these images are displayed simultaneously to viewers creating the illusion of depth, shadow, and perspective. The experience is nearly identical to traditional 3D screens but without the need for specialized, uncomfortable, and impractical eyewear.
To achieve the impressive naked-eye 3D effect, it's necessary to employ skilled, complex knowledge of many scientific principles, optical illusions, and multiple technical innovations. Experience working with grating and volume types, cylindrical lenses, holographic projections, parallax, depth mapping, image layering, and time-sharing multiplexing are just a few of the highly advanced techniques needed to create the beautiful, immersive experience of full naked-eye 3D content.
There are endless benefits to using LED 3D displays. Everyone loves 3D movies, even when wearing glasses. Combining high-resolution LED screens with 3D content is a natural fit that leads to impressive, immersive viewing experiences. Movie theaters and home entertainment setups can all benefit from the uniquely enjoyable visuals on 3D LED displays.
However, the greatest benefit of LED 3D screen technology is in naked eye displays. Naked-eye displays don't require special glasses or equipment. This makes the viewing experience more accessible and enjoyable to everyone: from the cultured connoisseur to the casual observer. Naked-eye 3D LED screens can be placed and enjoyed in any setting. Homes, movie theaters, bars, restaurants, public spaces, and advertising spots can all benefit from glasses-free naked-eye 3D LED displays.
Ultimately, however, it's viewers and consumers that benefit most from 3D LED technology, especially the glasses-free experience. Naked-eye 3D LED screens allow viewers to enjoy amazing, cutting-edge imagery without buying or wearing obtrusive glasses. 3D glasses can create headaches, neck pain, nausea, or disorientation. Naked-eye displays are safer to view and don't have any of the risks or complications associated with using 3D glasses.
3D LED displays have many applications. The most useful applications feature the naked-eye glasses-free 3D LED technology and can be displayed in both public and private locations. Quality 3D LED display manufacturers can create screens of various sizes, including displays large enough to feature outside buildings, public squares, and stages. Here are just a few practical and impressive applications of naked-eye 3D LED display technology:
Branding and Advertising - A naked-eye 3D LED display is far more impressive than a paper billboard, or a conventional screen. Brands, businesses, and products will "pop" into viewer's eyes in ways that can't be matched by traditional displays. A large, impressive 3D LED display that can be seen without glasses in a building, store, or corporate headquarters by anyone will leave a lasting positive impression on any customer, client, employee, or investor.
Public Beautification - Glasses-free 3D LED displays can be key features of any public or city beautification program. These 3D screens showcase impressive technology, and the beautiful 3D images can feature stunning images that will beautify, inspire, motivate, and delight viewers and the public. A large, high-tech 3D LED screen that can be seen clearly with the naked eye by any passerby or pedestrian can be a key centerpiece of any park, business district, public square, commercial shopping center, or tourist and recreation area.
Art, Media, and Entertainment - LED screens with 3D naked-eye technology are the perfect canvases to display any art, media, or entertainment. Whether it's movie theaters, home entertainment, concerts, art shows, plays, or showcasing complex news stories in greater detail 3D LED screens can present beautiful art, moving imagery and design, and compelling visual narratives in deeply immersive ways that convention screens cannot. A high-budget production set can stand out with a 3D LED display that doesn't require glasses or specialized equipment. Even churches, worship sites, and civic buildings can feature moving and inspiring media on impressive naked-eye 3D LED displays.
Teaching, Training, and Technical Development - 3D technology is a perfect way to teach students, train technicians, and promote technological development. Naked-eye 3D displays allow anyone to view complex visual elements and details from multiple angles in a safe, controlled setting. 3D displays can recreate realistic settings and create a level of intricate, interactive immersion that conventional screens, boards, images, and displays are unable to match. Mechanics, artists, doctors, soldiers, martial artists, animal trainers, and virtually any person or profession can benefit from glasses-free 3D-enabled learning.
You want to select an established 3D LED screen supplier with years of experience, a record of successful product design, and a leading market share. Here are two specific things to prioritize when selecting a vendor for your 3D LED display:
Product and Technological Quality - First and foremost a 3D LED display supplier must have top-quality screens, displays, and technology. If you want the best value for your money, you need a supplier that has the best knowledge, experience, products, and long-term technological skills. If you don't select a quality product and supplier, you'll be wasting your money.
Customer Service - 3D LED display technology is very advanced and complicated. It takes a lot of skill to properly manufacture, deliver, set up, maintain, and repair 3D LED screens. A company with polite, helpful, and skilled customer service can help you purchase the right product, deliver and install it properly, and address any issues. Large, established companies with big market share will typically provide better service than smaller, unknown brands.
