— The luminance distribution of autostereoscopic 3‐D displays using the parallax‐barrier method was simulated by two different calculation methods. The first method directly calculates the total luminance distribution by summing light rays coming from different positions on the imaging display through a parallax barrier at each eye position. The second method first calculates the angular distribution of light rays coming from the imaging display through a parallax barrier and then derives the spatial luminance distribution for each eye position. The two methods resulted in an equivalent distribution. Yet, the second method outperforms the first method in terms of calculating the speed and versatility.
