Stereoscopic 3 D Technologies

Instead, this report focuses mainly on stereoscopic 3D methods, mentioning other technologies to place them in context. The future trends will develop on the technologies available at this moment in time, so it seems sensible to concentrate on the short term. However, this review tries to highlight the dependencies and relationships between different options available for the deployment of 3D during its ‘lifecycle’, within the stereoscopic methods. Although this report does not describe any particularly novel aspect of the technology, it strives to establish the dynamic interplay between the parts. In establishing such relationships between the different phases of the content lifecycle, the aim is to clarify and simplify the issues, by suggesting preferential or mutually exclusive avenues for each option at a given stage of the workfl ow.
