Abstract
In this review paper, the recent progress of 3D applications using integral imaging is introduced. Thanks to the progress of the flat panel displays, the quality of the 3D displays has also improved, resulting in the opening of more applications of the 3D display. The previous studies on integral imaging emphasized the improvement of the viewing quality of the integral imaging system, but the emergence of new technologies requires more than the replacement of the current 2D displays. New applications of the integral imaging method, such as displays with augmented reality, 3D information capturing, real-time processing, the projection-type method, and the integral floating method, and their recent research trends, are introduced.
