Autostereoscopic display is a kind of three-dimensional technique which need not wear 3D goggles or other equipments. It can be classified into four groups: holography display techniques
integral photography display techniques
volumetric display techniques and horizontal parallax-based autostereoscopic display techniques. In these years
volumetric display techniques and horizontal parallax-based autostereoscopic display techniques develop rapidly. In this paper
we first overview developments in two kinds of volumetric display techniques
which are static volumetric display technique and volumetric display technique based on swept screen
during recent years. Then
make a survey of horizontal parallax-based autostereoscopic display on two ways
the optical sheets used and the multiplex methods. Last
summarize the advantages and disadvantages of volumetric display and autostereoscopic display based on parallax.
