Abstract
A system for displaying moving images from image information, e.g. on videotape or disk, in the form of a series of image frames to be displayed sequentially over a period of time. The image information does not contain stereoscopic information captured at the origin. As in conventional stereoscopic display, at any particular point in time, two image frames, A and B, are displayed simultaneously, one to each of the observer's eyes. However image frames A and B are generated from a single source of sequential image information. Image frame A is derived from a frame F and frame B is derived from a frame F of the series of source image frames. Frame F is positioned to be conventionally displayed after frame F by about 0.0167 and about 0.033 seconds. The system may include a screen on which the images are projected or otherwise displayed, the screen being at a distance D from an observer, wherein the image that is perceived by an observer upon binocular fusion of image frame A and B when their content is identical appears to be at a distance from the observer that is different from said distance D. Further detection and manipulation of the images may be performed, creating the perception that different elements within the scene appear at different depths.
