Abstract

A screen for a projection display system. The screen has a Fresnel lens for converting incoming light into parallel light and a Lenticular lens disposed on a surface of the Fresnel lens to change a path of the parallel light from the Fresnel lens, providing a three-dimensional image to a user. The Lenticular lens includes plural pixel lenses corresponding to pixels of the screen. Each of the pixel lenses has a central diffusing portion formed on a light-outgoing portion and a peripheral diffusing portion formed on a peripheral portion of the central diffusing portion.
