Abstract
This invention relates to volumetric 3D display systems based on a rotary reciprocating display surface. Layout of mechanical components and optical path are arranged to provide maximal viewing angle and minimal view-blocking, while keeping the whole system size compact and slim. Motion mechanisms, mechanical relief mechanism and 2-direction dynamic balancing are design to give smooth and quiet motion, while keeping the design simple and cost low. Backing structures and supporting frames for the display surface are designed to minimize deformation and stress in the display surface, while still satisfying requirements in optics and display.
