An Artifact Removal Algorithm for Near-Eye Microlens Array Displays

Chen Chen (1651209)


Nowadays, various kinds of head mounted displays are used as output in the virtual reality system. In order to achieve a wide field of view, conventional head mounted display has a large lens, the weight and size can not be ignored when the user is using it. By using microlens array, it is possible to design a lighter and thinner head mounted display. However, when the eyes are close to the display or the pupil size increases, ghost images will be generated. After applying ghost image removal algorithm, it will cause a phenomenon called artifact. In this thesis, we studied the reasons for the formation of artifacts. Then we proposed an algorithm to remove artifacts, we describe the removal algorithm in detail in the thesis. In order to verify the algorithm, we found the parameter settings that are suitable for verification. Finally, we verify the results by setting the parameters. In this way, we checked the results and compared the previous image, the artifacts were removed.
