Abstract
The invention relates to a method and system of displaying stereoscopic images. The method comprises displaying at least one stereoscopic image on a set of display device, the stereoscopic image comprising a pair of two-dimensional plane images, and providing adjustment data for spatial magnification, the spatial magnification relating to a size of a space that is imaged. The method also comprises transmitting the magnification adjustment data to a set of remotely located stereoscopic cameras, and adjusting the distance between the stereoscopic cameras based on the magnification adjustment data.
