Moiré modeling in 3D displays: a dominant component approximation using indicial and cosinusoidal approaches

Autostereoscopic 3D panels in augmented reality head-up displays use periodic optics to overlay pixel grids, creating a moiré effect. It is essential to predict this in advance to ensure display quality in virtual and augmented reality. The moiré effect in three-dimensional displays arises from the interference between the display panel’s pixel grid and periodic optical elements such as lenticular lenses or parallax barriers. While periodic gratings inherently exhibit infinitely many frequency c
