MULTI-VIEW DISPLAY SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREFOR

A multi-view display system comprises a display controller (307) which controls a display (301) to display a sequence of multi-view images in repeating view frames. A shutter device (311), such as shutter glasses, comprises at least two shutter elements arranged to switch between an open shutter mode and a less transparent closed shutter mode. Each shutter element is associated with a view of the plurality of views. A shutter driver (309) controls the shutter elements in repeating shutter frames (413) having a shutter time slot for each of the shutter elements. The shutter elements are in the open shutter mode during an allocated shutter time slot and otherwise in the closed shutter mode. The shutter frame rate of the repeating shutter frames is higher than a view frame rate of the repeating view frames. The invention may reduce flicker while maintaining a low frame rate, e.g. for 3D displays.
