A method of quantifying the amount of moirés in contact-type 3-D displays is described. The color moirés in the displays are induced by the periodic blocking of a part of each pixel on the panel by the boundary lines or the barrier lines consisting of the viewing zone forming optics. The method starts calculating the intensity of an image laden with moirés and that of the image with no moirés. The moirés contrast is defined as the intensity difference of the two images. The contrast values match well with those from the simulated moirés for the crossing angle range of 0° to 20°.
