UPDATE:
The current prototype uses two sources at 1024 x 768 and projects a 40"
image. The viewer is 30" from the viewing window.
This is a basic transportable viewer shown in February 2003 at NASA Ames in Mountain View California

The observer is seated in 23" front of a 25" diagonal viewing window. The image appears beyond the viewing window, creating the effect of size and distance in the full color stereo image. Unlike other displays the image does not seem "on a surface" but as it seems large and at a distance more like real life. Immersive and large objects appear to have solid surfaces with true colors. This is powerful tool for medicine, sciences, high impact presentations, workstations, training systems, and gaming. The image is only viewable from a centered position at an optimal distance. This is not highly restrictive... the viewing zones may be regarded as large "virtual eyepieces" that are 6" high and 2" wide. The images have uncompromised color and are comfortable to view for prolonged periods of time with low eye fatigue. Eyezone size is based on available light from the image source and has been 20" by 2.5" x 2 in high power systems. Our basic viewing system sells for $4000 complete with a loaded PC. With the included software you can produce stereo images from your photos pairs, computer sources, and the provided sample images. The viewing system has a 19" diagonal viewing window and a separate monitor for normal access to the 1.2 GHtz + PC. Possible upgrades include 25" and 48" diagonal viewing windows, twin video inputs, and various resolutions. Basic resolution is 640 x 800 but twin input of 1024 x 768 have been used. Quotes for custom systems will happily be provided. Custom display systems can work with any source of image pairs, including video. Many different configurations ranging from heads-up displays to workstations are possible. Streaming twin video from a remote vehicle can be made for you now. Twin video microscopes or Megapixel medical instruments are built to order. Kiosks and arcade devices will be built to order. A 48" diagonal viewing window is currently under development. |
Complete Custom Systems can be built to your specifications for your applications.

| This is an actual screen shot froman early computer based viewer. The two photos were taken using a handheld digital camera looking into the display viewing window and realigned to produce this crosseye view. These images were a 500 pixel wide pair while the current system is 640 x 800 and 1280 x 1024 x 2 can be built to order. This image was taken though a 16" diagonal window. |
