Abstract
A three-dimensional (3D) image rendering method and an apparatus are provided. The 3D image rendering method includes determining optical images associated with candidate viewpoint positions in a viewing zone, determining virtual rays intersecting a pixel of a display panel based on the determined optical images, and assigning a pixel value to the pixel based on respective distances between intersection points between the rays and an optical layer and optical elements of the optical layer.
