Popis: | Followingsome comments on the nature of stereo perception as it relates to stereo video displays, a number of areas of interestare briefly reviewed and accompanied by extensive citations from the patent and technical literature. These include variousmethods of autostereoscopic display, stereoendoscopy, stereo sculpture, and holographic television.STEREOVISION AND ELECTRONIC DISPLAYS Stereo vision evolved hundreds of millions of years ago in invertebrates as a critical survival mechanism. The first definitivedemonstration of stereovision in insects was recently accomplished by a Swiss researcher who glued tiny prisms to the eyes of a praying mantis, which then missed its prey by precisely the calculated amount. Humans have become so genetically degenerate that serious visual problems including loss of stereo perception are common. The vast majority have good depthperception but sophisticated tests show wide variations.The individual variations in stereovision should be of vital concern in the creation and use of stereo systems but are usuallycompletely ignored. As with all other physiological systems, stereovision may improve rapidly with use, both short term andlong term. Repeated use of a stereo display can lead to more rapid fusion and greater comfort. |
