Real-Time Stereoscopic Conversion with Adaptable Viewing Distance at Personal Stereoscopic Viewing Devices

چکیده
This paper proposes the real-time stereoscopic conversion method with adaptable viewing distance by the viewer’s eye detection at personal stereoscopic viewing devices. The distance between a screen and viewer is often changed by moving a personal display or moving head position. It causes a visual discomfort and low quality stereoscopy. Our proposed method is divided into two parts; eye detection part to acquire viewer’s eye positions and stereoscopic generation part in real-time. In the first part, we can measure an interocular distance of a single viewer by the proposed eye detection method and also calculate the distance between a screen and a viewer by using the principle of stereoscopic generation. In the other part, we propose an efficient motion-based approach for conversion from 2D video to stereoscopic video. The disparity between left image and right image is adaptively adjusted by viewer’s interocular distance. Adaptation time for a 3D immersion during 3D stereoscopic viewing is remarkably reduced and stereoscopy is personally optimized. Therefore, our proposed system can offer optimized stereoscopic conversion and more freedom of viewer’s head considering the distance between a screen and a viewer through the proposed eye detection.

Evaluation of stereoscopic image quality for mobile devices using Interpretation Based Quality methodology
High-quality stereoscopic image content must be viewable in a variety of visual environments, from 3-D theaters to 3-D mobile devices. Stereoscopic effects, however, are affected by screen size, viewing distance, and other parameters. In this study, the authors focus on the stereoscopic image quality experience of viewing 3-D content on a mobile device in order to compare it with that of viewin...

متن کاملStereoscopic acuity and observation distance.
The amount of depth perceived from a fixed pattern of horizontal disparities varies with viewing distance. We investigated whether thresholds for discriminating stereoscopic corrugations at a range of spatial frequencies were also affected by viewing distance or whether they were determined solely by the angular disparity in the stimulus prior to scaling. Although thresholds were found to be de...

Existing stereoscopic imaging algorithms can create static stereoscopic images with perceived depth control function to ensure a compelling 3D viewing experience without visual discomfort. However, current algorithms do not normally support standard Cinematic Storytelling techniques. These techniques, such as object movement, camera motion, and zooming, can result in dynamic scene depth change ...

Under natural viewing conditions, viewers do not just passively perceive. Instead, they dynamically scan the visual scene by shifting their eye fixation and focus between objects at different viewing distances. In doing so, the oculomotor processes of accommodation (eye focus) and vergence (angle between lines of sight of two eyes) must be shifted synchronously to place new objects in sharp foc...
