Abstract

A method and device for displaying, on a single display surface, two different images. Each picture element on the display surface transmits information about the two displayed images. The viewer wears polarizing spectacles having cross polarized lens. The device uses polarizing filters and LCDs to rotate the polarized light and bring this polarized light in a predetermined angle so as to present an independent intensity to each eye of the viewer.
