Veritas et Visus 3rd Dimension October 2010 3D from 2D objects… by Mark Fihn In my youth, I briefly became fascinated by the traditional Japanese art form of origami – the goal of which is to create a representation of an object using geometric folds and crease patterns preferably without the use of gluing or cutting the paper, and using only one piece of paper. Well, although I quickly learned that I didn’t have the patience or talent to create 3D objects from 2D surfaces, I still have the fascination… Won Park is a master of origami. He is also called the “money folder”, a practitioner of origami whose canvas is the US one dollar bill. http://moneygami.blogspot.com 2 Veritas et Visus 3rd Dimension October 2010 Allen and Patty Eckman have developed a unique medium of cast paper sculpture to create amazing works of art using nothing more than acid-free paper. Their art mostly depicts American Indians, but also include nature, women, children, and animals. http://www.eckmanfineart.com Veritas et Visus (Truth and Vision) publishes a family of specialty newsletters about the displays industry: Flexible Substrate Display Standard 3rd Dimension High Resolution Touch Panel http://www.veritasetvisus.com 3 Veritas et Visus 3rd Dimension October 2010 3D news from around the world compiled by Phillip Hill and Mark Fihn Mitsubishi Electric debuts 3D high-definition home theater projector Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America's Presentation Products Division introduced its newest Diamond 3D 1080p full HD home theater projector. Mitsubishi’s new Diamond 3D projector creates 3D images that can display over 100-inch screens. Powered by an SXRD reflective liquid-crystal optical engine, Mitsubishi adds its own algorithms and processing technologies to create high-brightness, high-contrast (up to 120,000:1 full on/full off) images. A key element in projector performance is its lens, and Mitsubishi has incorporated extra-low dispersion glass into its six- piece, 17-cluster structure for higher functionality that minimizes chromatic aberration. The result is colors and details that are impeccably crystal clear. With its auto-iris function, Mitsubishi’s Diamond 3D home theater projector automatically sets the optimal aperture according to each scene, and its 120Hz refresh rate produces ultra- smooth transitions and life-like images. An independent management function allows adjustment to color characteristics such as hue, intensity and brightness individually (red, green, cyan, magenta and yellow), without affecting the other colors. With a wide range of powered lens shift (100% vertical and 45% horizontal), this new Mitsubishi Diamond 3D projector is easy to install, even in a complicated room configuration. In some cases there may not be a need to turn the projector upside down in a ceiling mount, and its 1.8x powered-zoom range also gives installers additional installation flexibility. At only 19dBa, this Diamond 3D projector is extremely quiet, so viewers can easily hear the movie, even in whisper-soft scenes, instead of an annoying projector hum. Two HDMI v1.4 inputs support 3D signals and its RS232 support offers plug-and-play connectivity with third-party remote operations. Mitsubishi's new Diamond 3D projector also offers low cost of ownership with an estimated 4000-hour lamp life in low conservation mode. http://www.mitsubishi-presentations.com Consumer Electronics Association and ESPN partner to demo sports offerings 3DTV viewers The Consumer Electronics Association has teamed up with ESPN to show and educate consumers all that 3DTV offers in the world of sports. ESPN has a long history of leading in technology and sports including developing high definition sports seven years ago and is doing it again with developing content in 3D for sports. In the course of the year ESPN will have nearly a hundred events telecast in 3D including college basketball, pro basketball, college football and the X Games from Los Angeles and Aspen. 3DTV technology, that is available to consumers in 60 million households, creates an opportunity to provide a lot of people with engaging content and will grow faster than HDTV grew. In contrast, when high definition programming first launched there was virtually no one who could see it. In the video Megan Pollack of the CEA and Bryan Burns from ESPN discuss the future of 3D TV and sports. You can see the video at http://yourupdate.tv/technology/3D_demo_days/. Digital Projection launches Full HD single-chip 3D projector Digital Projection International (DPI) announced the active-3D enabled M-Vision Cine 400-3D. Equipped with the same DLP® DarkChip technology featured in DPI’s entire product line, the M-Vision Cine 400-3D delivers immersive 3D imagery for screens up to 12 foot wide. The M-Vision Cine 400-3D will be priced below $20,000. The 5,500 lumen M-Vision Cine 400-3D thrives in cinemas with screens up to 12 foot wide, as well as in venues with some ambient light, such as media rooms with smaller screen sizes. The compact and quiet Cine chassis, 1080p resolution, broad source connectivity and straightforward user interface make the M-Vision Cine 400-3D an optimum 3D solution for home entertainment. Serving as a compliment to the existing TITAN 3D product line, the M-Vision Cine 400-3D introduces a native 1080p, single-chip 3D display to home cinemas for a fraction of the cost. Enthusiasts can now experience flicker-free 3D at a full 120 frames per second. Installation is flexible due to the M-Vision Cine 400-3D’s compact and lightweight chassis design, and lens shift range of 30% horizontal and 120% vertical. Multiple easy-to-change lens options provide further flexibility, with throw ratios ranging from 1.25 to 3.0:1. There is also a fixed lens that offers a 0.73:1 throw ratio. Connectivity includes two HDMI inputs, as well as RGB via D-15, component, composite and S-Video inputs. http://www.digitalprojection.com/ 4 Veritas et Visus 3rd Dimension October 2010 Technicolor 3D surpasses 250 screens in North America Further supporting the successful launch of Technicolor 3D, the 35mm 3D solution, Technicolor announced it has installed its Technicolor 3D system on more than 250 screens in North America just four months after its initial debut in theatres. Technicolor 3D was launched in theatres on March 26 with “How to Train Your Dragon”, followed by “Clash of the Titans”, “Shrek Forever After”, “The Last Airbender”, “Despicable Me”, “Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore”, and “Piranha 3D”. Technicolor 3D recently launched in international territories with “Shrek Forever After” from DreamWorks Animation. Other studios indicating support for the format internationally include: Paramount Pictures, Universal Pictures, The Weinstein Company and Warner Bros. Countries included in the launch are the UK, Spain, Italy and Germany and Japan. http://www.technicolor3D.com JVC introduces 3D-enabled D-ILA home theater projectors with up to 100,000:1 native contrast ratio JVC U.S.A. unveiled six new 3D-enabled D-ILA projectors. All six host native contrast ratios that are unmatched in the industry, with the top models delivering a 100,000:1 native contrast ratio. The new projectors are the Reference Series DLA-RS60, DLA-RS50 and DLA-RS40, to be marketed by JVC’s Professional Products Group, and the Procision Series DLA-X9, DLA-X7 and DLA-X3, to be available through JVC’s Consumer Electronics Group. For 3D content, each projector includes two HDMI 1.4a ports and supports side-by-side (broadcast), frame series (Blu-ray), and above-below 3D transmissions. An external 3D signal emitter (PK-EM1) syncs the projected image with JVC’s active shutter 3D glasses (PK-AG1). The external 3D signal emitter ensures solid signal transmission to the 3D glasses for a superior 3D experience, no matter what type of screen is used or how the home theater has been configured. The new flagship projectors, the DLA-RS60 and DLA-X9, are built using hand-selected, hand-tested components and provide a 100,000:1 native contrast ratio.

    Baggage X-Ray Scanning Effects on Film

    Tib5201 April 2003 TECHNICAL INFORMATION BULLETIN Baggage X-ray Scanning Effects on Film Updated April 8, 2003 Airport Baggage Scanning Equipment Can Jeopardize Your Unprocessed Film Because your pictures are important to you, this information is presented as an alert to travelers carrying unprocessed film. New FAA-certified (Federal Aviation Administration) explosive detection systems are being used in U.S. airports to scan (x-ray) checked baggage. This stronger scanning equipment is also being used in many non-US airports. The new equipment will fog any unprocessed film that passes through the scanner. The recommendations in this document are valid for all film formats (135, Advanced Photo System [APS], 120/220, sheet films, 400 ft. rolls, ECN in cans, etc.). Note: X rays from airport scanners don’t affect digital camera images or film that has already been processed, i.e. film from which you have received prints, slides, KODAK PHOTO CD Discs, or KODAK Picture CDs. This document also does not cover how mail sanitization affects film. If you would like information on that topic, click on this Kodak Web site: mail sanitization. Suggestions for Avoiding Fogged Film X-ray equipment used to inspect carry-on baggage uses a very low level of x-radiation that will not cause noticeable damage to most films. However, baggage that is checked (loaded on the planes as cargo) often goes through equipment with higher energy X rays. Therefore, take these precautions when traveling with unprocessed film: • Don’t place single-use cameras or unprocessed film in any luggage or baggage that will be checked.

    Audiovisual Spatial Congruence, and Applications to 3D Sound and Stereoscopic Video

    Audiovisual spatial congruence, and applications to 3D sound and stereoscopic video. C´edricR. Andr´e Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Faculty of Applied Sciences University of Li`ege,Belgium Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Engineering Sciences December 2013 This page intentionally left blank. ©University of Li`ege,Belgium This page intentionally left blank. Abstract While 3D cinema is becoming increasingly established, little effort has fo- cused on the general problem of producing a 3D sound scene spatially coher- ent with the visual content of a stereoscopic-3D (s-3D) movie. The percep- tual relevance of such spatial audiovisual coherence is of significant interest. In this thesis, we investigate the possibility of adding spatially accurate sound rendering to regular s-3D cinema. Our goal is to provide a perceptually matched sound source at the position of every object producing sound in the visual scene. We examine and contribute to the understanding of the usefulness and the feasibility of this combination. By usefulness, we mean that the technology should positively contribute to the experience, and in particular to the storytelling. In order to carry out experiments proving the usefulness, it is necessary to have an appropriate s-3D movie and its corresponding 3D audio soundtrack. We first present the procedure followed to obtain this joint 3D video and audio content from an existing animated s-3D movie, problems encountered, and some of the solutions employed. Second, as s-3D cinema aims at providing the spectator with a strong impression of being part of the movie (sense of presence), we investigate the impact of the spatial rendering quality of the soundtrack on the reported sense of presence.

    History of the Early Days of Ampex Corporation

    PAPER History of The Early Days of Ampex Corporation As recalled by JOHN LESLIE and ROSS SNYDER Alexander M. Poniatoff founded Ampex in 1944, primarily to manufacture small motors and generators for military applications. When WWII ended, the military contracts dropped off, and Alex had to search for a new line of business to continue his company’s existence. He and his small group of engineers heard a demonstration of a Magnetophon, a German magnetic tape recorder used by Hitler during WWII. The demonstration quickly convinced Alex to redirect his company and soon it was designing and manufacturing professional-quality magnetic tape recorders. Bing Crosby was a great help in Ampex’s early years. The company grew quickly and, within a short time, dominated the magnetic tape recorder market in radio, television, the record industry, and industrial and military markets for instrumentation recorders . Alex was born in Russia in 1892. His father was well-to- 0 INTRODUCTION do, and sent Alex to Germany for an education in engineering. After college, he returned to Russia only to see his country It has been amazing how many people today are asking become engaged in a civil war. Alex escaped to China, where questions about Ampex and the Company’s contribution to the he went to work for the Shanghai Power Company. He music recording industry, the radio and television broadcast immigrated to the United States in 1927 where he worked for industry and the stereophonic home entertainment field. There General Electric, Pacific Gas & Electric, and the Dalmo Victor is no question that Ampex was a major factor in each of these Corporation in San Carlos, California.

This is known as binocular vision. We care about this, and are discussing it, because stereo computer graphics can be a great help in de-cluttering a complex 3D scene. It can also enhance the feeling of being immersed in a movie. OSU President Dr. Becky Johnson Computer Graphics mjb – August 5, 2021 4 2 5 The Cyclops Model In the world of computer graphics, the two eye views can be reconstructed using standard projection mathematics. The simplest approach is the Cyclops Model. In this model, the left and right eye views are obtained by rotating the scene plus and minus what a Cyclops at the origin would see Y ψ ψ X L C R Z The left eye view is obtained by rotating the scene an angle +ψ about the Y axis. The right eye view is obtained by rotating the scene an angle -ψ about the Y axis. In practice, if you wanted to do this (and you don’t), a good value of ψ would be 1-4˚.

Ambiance -- Low level sounds that set a mood or suggest the character of a particular place. Analog vs. digital -- The difference between analog and digital sound is explained best in terms of the analog and digital soundtracks on the Dolby Digital print shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 The width of the analog soundtrack varies in a way that is directly analogous to the varying soundwaves of the original sound. All analog formats have an equivalent varying parameter, such as the strength of the magnetic field on recording tape, or the side-to-side swings of the groove on a phonograph record. When played back, the varying width of the track is translated to a varying electrical voltage which ultimately causes the theatre's loudspeakers cones to move back and forth to recreate the original sound. With a digital optical soundtrack, points along the soundwaves of the original sound are assigned a numeric (or digital) value, which are represented as tiny dots on the track.
