Abstract
A method for producing an anisotropic optical device that enables the viewer to perceive a repertoire of preselected images over a first range of angles of regard in previously unachievably thin anisotropic sheets. The device, which is useful as advertising media in a wide variety of forms, includes a bilaterally stabilized base film layer, a molded lenticular surface having lenses with substantially circular cross section adhesively affixed to a first side of the base film; and a computer-generated image that is registered to the lenticular surface and affixed to the second side of the bilaterally stabilized base film.
