We proposed a method to suppress seam visibility of a tiled display by combining: 1) engineered substrate and base surface optical properties; and 2) the use of microstructure cover plate made by micro-replication technology. We, first, studied the operation conditions to achieve effective suppression of tiling seam visibility by ray-tracing modeling. Then, we conducted experimental investigation to validate those modeling predictions. Both modeling and experimental results show that the method could effectively suppress the seam visibility of a tiled display.
