Three dimensional (3D) image display apparatus, and driving method thereof

摘要

A three dimensional (3D) image display apparatus is provided. The 3D image display apparatus includes an image input unit which receives a 3D image, an image processing unit which divides the input 3D image into a left-eye image and a right-eye image and processes the left and right-eye images, an image output unit which comprises one sheet of polarization film which is capable of switching a direction of polarization, to provide a different direction of polarization with respect to the left and right-eye images being displayed, by switching the direction of polarization of the polarization film, and a control unit which controls the image output unit so that the left and right-eye images processed at the image processing unit are time-divided and displayed alternately. As a result, 3D images are represented conveniently.
