چکیده

Stereoscopic display is a fundamental part of virtual reality systems such as the virtual workbench, the CAVE and HMD systems. A common practice in stereoscopic systems is deliberate incorrect modeling of user eye separation. Under estimating eye separation can help the human visual system fuse stereo image pairs into single 3D images, while over estimating eye separation enhances image depth. Unfortunately, false eye separation modeling also distorts the perceived 3D image in undesirable ways. We present a novel analytic expression and quantitative analysis of this distortion for eyes at an arbitrary location and orientation.

An Analytic Comparison of α-False Eye Separation, Image Scaling and Image Shifting in Stereoscopic Displays

Stereoscopic display is a fundamental part of many virtual reality systems. Stereoscopic displays render two perspective views of a scene, each of which is seen by one eye of the user. Ideally the user’s natural visual system combines the stereo image pairs and the user perceives a single 3D image. In practice, however, users can have difficulty fusing the stereo image pairs into a single 3D im...

A Geometric Comparison of Algorithms for Fusion Control in Stereoscopic HTDs

This paper concerns stereoscopic virtual reality displays in which the head is tracked and the display is stationary, attached to a desk, tabletop or wall. These are called stereoscopic HTDs (Head-Tracked Display). Stereoscopic displays render two perspective views of a scene, each of which is seen by one eye of the user. Ideally the user’s natural visual system combines the stereo image pair i...

Controlling Perceived Depth in Stereoscopic Images

Stereoscopic images are hard to get right, and comfortable images are often only produced after repeated trial and error. The main difficulty is controlling the stereoscopic camera parameters so that the viewer does not experience eye strain or double images from excessive perceived depth. Additionally, for head tracked displays, the perceived objects can distort as the viewer moves to look aro...

Third-Person Navigation of Whole-Planet Terrain in a Head-tracked Stereoscopic Environment

Navigation and interaction in virtual environments that use stereoscopic head-tracked displays and have very large data sets present several challenges beyond those encountered with smaller data sets and simpler displays. First, zooming by approaching or retreating from a target must be augmented by integrating scale as a seventh degree of freedom. Second, in order to maintain good stereoscopic...

Viewing model for stereoscopic head-mounted displays

We characterize a class of stereoscopic displays, which includes head-mounted displays that incorporate miniature cathode-ray tubes. We present a detailed viewing model that accounts for the placement, size, and orientation of the virtual display images. The model is appropriate for several types of head-mounted display, as well as head-tracked stationary displays. The tracking algorithm accoun...
