Vision III Single-Camera Autostereoscopic Methods

The Vision III™ single-camera autostereoscopic (SCA™) process for texture and depth enhancement has been adapted for use in photographing three-dimensional objects and sets with motion-control systems. Successful tests have been performed on an IMC camera platform driven by Tondreau motion-control software using a 386 PC computer and on a Mechanical Concepts camera platform controlled by Athena-11 software on a minicomputer. Vision III is an autostereoscopic process that exploits the short-term visual memory used by the human brain in depth perception. Depth information is formatted to produce a natural, true three-dimensional image. Vision III is compatible with standard broadcast television and motion-picture production and requires no modification of display equipment or use of viewing glasses.
