Abstract
A viewing system and method for producing at least one image for being perceived as three-dimensional, including at least one of: a provision for compensating the center-of-interest of the at least one image in such a manner as to reduce convergence-accommodation conflict; a provision for configuring the viewing system such that crosstalk produced by a stereo display is perceived as foreground and background blur instead of ghosting; and a provision for viewing the at least one image via automicrostereopsis.
Claims26
A viewing system comprising an arrangement for producing, via microstereopsis, at least one image that is perceived as three dimensional, wherein camera or virtual camera interocular separation, without being scaled for human interocular separation, is substantially less than about 60 mm.
A method of producing at least one image of a scene for being perceived autostereoscopically as three-dimensional, said method comprising the step of compensating the center-of-interest of the at least one image to cause the residual on-screen disparity in a foreground image and in a background image of the scene to be perceived, in the presence of crosstalk between left-eye and right-eye component images of said at least one image, as blurred and not ghosted.
A method of producing at least one image for being perceived as three dimensional, said method comprising the steps of:
- providing a viewing system that includes a stereo display;
- and
- configuring the viewing system such that crosstalk produced by the stereo display is perceived as foreground and background blur instead of ghosting.
Method for rendering a visually comfortable three-dimensional image, said method comprising the steps of:
- providing an arrangement for producing at least one perceptible image;
- and
- providing an arrangement for viewing the at least one image via microstereopsis.
Apparatus for rendering a visually comfortable three-dimensional image, said apparatus comprising:
- an arrangement for producing at least one perceptible image;
- and
- an arrangement for viewing the at least one image via microstereopsis.
