Visuals not only improve a student’s ability to understand how something works, but Seeing in 3D is the closest also help with retention. Furthermore, thing to actually being there. by seeing the “whole” of something, children are better able to understand the parts. Research findings: Even more importantly, research shows The majority of children are that 3D-animated models are able to visual or tactile learners, represent information in the most whereas the majority of efficient manner to speed learning and instruction is auditory. comprehension. Students learn more by seeing Advances make 3D affordable and experiencing than by Recent advances in 3D animation listening. technology and viewing equipment have made it possible to bring high-quality 3D Students said they learn better learning solutions into the K-12 when they can see a 3D image. classroom more affordably. The Future of 3D Education | The 3D Classroom by Sensavis 5 INTRODUCTION This is not your childhood 3D. Today’s technology can even provide an interactive 3D (depth perspective) experience that is nearly like looking at a live object, while allowing students to control … or even create … the visuals interactively. Yet, the adoption of 3D technology as an effective, affordable and even essential component of education in the 21st century classroom is only just starting. Content availability increasing 3D content focused on science, mathematics, history and more is readily Is 3D something that could work available today and more is continually in your school? Let us know what being developed.

The Future of 3D Education | The 3D Classroom by Sensavis 7 Teaching methods that work more CHAPTER 1 closely with how the human brain is designed to work are the most effective. How does 3D technology Research shows that: improve learning? 85% of school-aged children are visual and kinesthetic learners and 3D animations make it possible for only 15% are auditory learners. students to move rapidly from viewing a Experts say that most school-age whole structure to various parts of the children learn best through kinesthetic structure, even zooming in to means: touching, feeling, and microscopic and cellular levels. This experiencing the material first-hand. process of amplification and simplification can be an especially According to Stafford and Dunn in effective aide to understanding. Teaching Secondary Students Through Their Individual Learning Styles (1993): “With 3D visuals, educators are able to "Children enter kindergarten as simplify complex, abstract and even kinesthetic and tactual learners, moving impossibly large amounts of information and touching everything as they learn. into a coherent form,” said Professor By second or third grade, some students Anne Bamford, director of the have become visual learners.” International Research Agency, who led The “Learning in Future Education” or “LiFE” project. “By rendering the world visually, 3D helps children understand greater levels of complexity, and animations allow students to see structures and how things work in a real-life way.” The Future of 3D Education | The 3D Classroom by Sensavis 8 CHAPTER 1 "During the late elementary years some students, primarily females, become auditory learners. Yet, many adults, especially males, maintain kinesthetic and tactual strengths throughout their lives.” The human brain is designed to learn through experience. 3D is how we experience the world around us. “The closer we can get to a life-like experience of a message, the closer we get to an understanding of that message (and in shorter time), ” said Magnus Arfors, Founder/CEO of Sensavis Education. 85% of students prefer visual and The impact of 3D kinesthetic learning while only on academic results 15% prefer hearing about a topic as a way to learn about it. Research shows that 3D animations have a significant positive effect on The study report concluded that 3D learning, recall and test performance. animations supported learning and In a seven-country European LiFE study, allowed more material to be covered researchers found that 3D improved in less time. The 3D images promoted understanding and retention. greater pupil engagement and communication. A study of the impact of 3D in the classroom has found that it improves test results by an average of 17%. The Future of 3D Education | The 3D Classroom by Sensavis 9 CHAPTER 1 About the LiFE study of 3D in education The “Learning in Future Education” (or LiFE) project by Professor Anne Bamford Anne Bamford, was the first international study of 3D Educator/Researcher use in education, and showed very positive results. 86 percent of pupils improved from In fact, Bamford said she was surprised the pre-test to the post-test in the by the results and didn’t expect to see 3D classes, compared to only 52 such dramatic increases in student percent in the 2D classes. learning and positive responses from all Within the group that improved, the schools. the rate of improvement was also much greater in the classes with 3D. The study included 15 schools in seven European countries: England, Sweden, Test scores improved an average of Italy, France, Germany, The Netherlands 17 percent in the 3D classes, and Turkey. The schools represented a compared to only an 8 percent broad spectrum of types of schools improvement in the 2D classes including public and private, wealthy between pre-test and post-test. and less affluent. The focus was on pupils between 10-13 years old. The effects of the 3D learning were so strong and impressive that students in Results the non-3D groups in LiFE study trials who heard what their peers were The results of the study showed learning demanded the same access to consistent improvement in test scores. the technology.

    Creation of a Complete Stereoscopic 3D Workflow for SoFA Allison Hettinger and Ian Krassner 1. Introduction 1.1 3D Trend Stereoscopic 3D motion pictures have recently risen to popularity once again following the success of films such as James Cameron’s Avatar. More and more films are being converted to 3D but few films are being shot in 3D. Current available technology and knowledge of that technology (along with cost) is preventing most films from being shot in 3D. Shooting in 3D is an advantage because two slightly different images are produced that mimic the two images the eyes see in normal vision. Many take the cheaper route of shooting in 2D and converting to 3D. This results in a 3D image, but usually nowhere near the quality as if the film was originally shot in 3D. This is because a computer has to create the second image, which can result in errors. It is also important to note that a 3D image does not necessarily mean a stereo image. 3D can be used to describe images that have an appearance of depth, such as 3D animations. Stereo images refer to images that make use of retinal disparity to create the illusion of objects going out of and into the screen plane. Stereo images are optical illusions that make use of several cues that the brain uses to perceive a scene. Examples of monocular cues are relative size and position, texture gradient, perspective and occlusion. These cues help us determine the relative depth positions of objects in an image. Binocular cues such as retinal disparity and convergence are what give the illusion of depth.

  • Spacespex™ Anaglyph—The Only Way to Bring 3Dtv to the Masses
    SPACESPEX™ ANAGLYPH—THE ONLY WAY TO BRING 3DTV TO THE MASSES By Michael Starks © M. Starks 2009 May be reproduced provided nothing is added, omitted or changed-- including this copyright notice. SpaceSpex™ is the name I applied to my versions of the orange/blue anaglyph technique in 1993. In fact the Gang Li/ColorCode and some models of SpaceSpex use amber or orange/brown rather than yellow, but they are on a continuum. Like all the bicolor anaglyph methods it is compatible with all video equipment and displays and I think it’s the best of the methods using inexpensive paper glasses with colored lenses. Until someone comes up with a way to put hundreds of millions of new 3D TV’s in homes which can use polarized glasses or LCD shutter glasses, anaglyph is going to be the only way for mass distribution of full color high quality 3D over cable, satellite, the web or on DVD. However the solution I have proposed for Set Top Boxes, PC’s, TV sets and DVD players for the last 20 years is to have user controls, so those with display hardware that permits polarized or shutter glasses or even autostereo viewing or who want 2D can make that choice from the single 3D video file. This is the method of the TDVision codec, Next3D, and of Peter Wimmer’s famous StereoScopic Player (a new version due end of 2009), (all of which should appear in hardware soon) and probably the best stereoplayer of all in Masuji Suto’s StereoMovie Maker, and is being incorporated in most well known software DVD and media players.

  • Comparing Levels of Crosstalk with Red/Cyan, Blue/Yellow, and Green
    A. J. Woods, C. R. Harris, “Comparing levels of crosstalk with red/cyan, blue/yellow, and green/magenta anaglyph 3D glasses” in Proceedings of SPIE Stereoscopic Displays and Applications XXI, vol. 7253, pp. 0Q1-0Q12, January 2010. Online: www.cmst.curtin.edu.au Comparing levels of crosstalk with red/cyan, blue/yellow, and green/magenta anaglyph 3D glasses Andrew J. Woods*, Chris R. Harris Centre for Marine Science and Technology, Curtin University of Technology, GPO Box U1987, Perth WA 6845, Australia ABSTRACT The Anaglyph 3D method of stereoscopic visualization is both cost effective and compatible with all full-color displays, however this method often suffers from poor 3D image quality due to poor color quality and ghosting (whereby each eye sees a small portion of the perspective image intended for the other eye). Ghosting, also known as crosstalk, limits the ability of the brain to successfully fuse the images perceived by each eye and thus reduces the perceived quality of the 3D image. This paper describes a research project which has simulated the spectral performance of a wide selection of anaglyph 3D glasses on CRT, LCD and plasma displays in order to predict ghosting levels. This analysis has included for the first time a comparison of crosstalk between different color-primary types of anaglyph glasses - green/magenta and blue/yellow as well as the more traditional red/cyan. Sixteen pairs of anaglyph 3D glasses were simulated (6 pairs of red/cyan glasses, 6 pairs of blue/yellow glasses and 4 pairs of green/magenta glasses). The spectral emission results for 13 LCDs, 15 plasma displays and one CRT Monitor were used for the analysis.

It automatically extracts and displays left and right stereo images from the Internet search engines, e.g., Google Image Search. Within a short waiting time, many 3D related results are returned to the users regarding aligned left and right stereo photos; these results are viewable through VR glasses. The system automatically filters different types of available 3D data from redundant pictorial datasets on the public networks (the Internet). To reduce possible copyright issues, only the search for images that are “labelled for reuse” is performed; meaning that the obtained pictures can be used for any purpose, in any area, without being modified. The system then automatically specifies if the picture is a side-by-side stereo pair, an anaglyph, a stereogram, or just a “normal” 2D image (not optically 3D viewable). The system then generates a stereo pair from the collected dataset, to seamlessly display 3D visualisation on State-of-the-art VR devices such as the low-cost Google Cardboard, Samsung Gear VR or Google Daydream.

This is enabled with the help of supporting technical equipment or gadgets. This topic has its reach everywhere, majorly in the field of medicine, technology, education, entertainment and business. This paper focuses on the various techniques and models of 3 Dimensional Endoscopic Tele-operations and compares the majorly available imaging techniques used in 3D Endoscopic tele-operations. Keywords: Aesculap, Einstein Vision, cool light, sterile drape. I. INTRODUCTION In the Earlier years, surgeries were performed with great difficulty, by surgical incision of the patient’s target region with loss of excess blood and concluded with stitches. [1] After the surgery, normally the patients are advised for a bed rest along with medication for a longp er eriod of time as blood lose used to be more and surgical cuts are wider and deeper. In most cases, the patients end up with adverse side effects including somnolence and post-operative pain. The most difficult situation is when the scar marks are left behind after surgery. With the entry of Endoscopic Tele-operation, most of the problems related to post-operative pains have been taken care; including sutures, stitches and staples.

  • Insect Stereopsis Demonstrated Using a 3D Insect Cinema
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Insect stereopsis demonstrated using a 3D insect cinema Vivek Nityananda1, Ghaith Tarawneh1, Ronny Rosner1, Judith Nicolas1,2, Stuart Crichton1 & Jenny Read1 Received: 24 August 2015 Stereopsis - 3D vision – has become widely used as a model of perception. However, all our knowledge Accepted: 13 November 2015 of possible underlying mechanisms comes almost exclusively from vertebrates. While stereopsis has Published: 07 January 2016 been demonstrated for one invertebrate, the praying mantis, a lack of techniques to probe invertebrate stereopsis has prevented any further progress for three decades. We therefore developed a stereoscopic display system for insects, using miniature 3D glasses to present separate images to each eye, and tested our ability to deliver stereoscopic illusions to praying mantises. We find that while filtering by circular polarization failed due to excessive crosstalk, “anaglyph” filtering by spectral content clearly succeeded in giving the mantis the illusion of 3D depth. We thus definitively demonstrate stereopsis in mantises and also demonstrate that the anaglyph technique can be effectively used to deliver virtual 3D stimuli to insects. This method opens up broad avenues of research into the parallel evolution of stereoscopic computations and possible new algorithms for depth perception. Stereopsis – the ability to compare the images seen by each eye and use the disparity between them to perceive depth – is a marvellous feat of visual computation1. It was recently described as “one of the most productive model systems for elucidating the neural basis of perception”2. A large body of work has investigated and shed light on the mechanisms by which humans and other primates achieve stereopsis1,3–5.

This study aims to investigate image brightness loss in 3D displays, with the primary aim being to quantify the image brightness degradation in the 3D mode. A further aim is to determine the image brightness relationship to the corresponding two-dimensional (2D) images in order to adjust the 3D-image brightness values. In addition, the photographic principle is used in this study to measure metering values by capturing 2D and 3D images on television screens.

Stereoscopic effect used in Macro photography. 2 of 11 12/28/08 6:41 PM Anaglyph image - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaglyph_image Anaglyph images are used to provide a stereoscopic 3D effect, when viewed with 2 color glasses (each lens a chromatically opposite color, usually red and cyan). Images are made up of two color layers, superimposed, but offset with respect to each other to produce a depth effect. Usually the main subject is in the center, while the foreground and background are shifted laterally in opposite directions. The picture contains two differently filtered colored images, one for each eye. When viewed through the "color coded" "anaglyph glasses", they reveal an integrated stereoscopic image. The visual cortex of the brain fuses this into perception of a Anaglyph (3D photograph) of three dimensional scene or composition. Saguaro National Park at dusk. Anaglyph images have seen a recent resurgence due to the presentation of images and video on the internet, Blu-ray HD disks, CDs, and even in print. Low cost paper frames or plastic-framed glasses hold accurate color filters, that typically, after 2002 make use of all 3 primary colors. The current norm is red for one channel (usually the left) and a combination of both blue and green in the other filter.
