Virtual Reality and Visual Perception by Jared Bendis
Virtual Reality and Visual Perception by Jared Bendis Introduction Goldstein (2002) defines perception as a “conscious sensory experience” (p. 6) and as scientists investigate how the human perceptual system works they also find themselves investigating how the human perceptual system doesn’t work and how that system can be fooled, exploited, and even circumvented. The pioneers in the ability to control the human perceptual system have been in the field of Virtual Realty. In Simulated and Virtual Realities – Elements of Perception, Carr (1995) defines Virtual Reality as “…the stimulation of human perceptual experience to create an impression of something which is not really there” (p. 5). Heilig (2001) refers to this form of “realism” as “experience” and in his 1955 article about “The Cinema of the Future” where he addresses the need to look carefully at perception and breaks down the precedence of perceptual attention as: Sight 70% Hearing 20% Smell 5% Touch 4% Taste 1% (p. 247) Not surprisingly sight is considered the most important of the senses as Leonardo da Vinci observed: “They eye deludes itself less than any of the other senses, because it sees by none other than the straight lines which compose a pyramid, the base of which is the object, and the lines conduct the object to the eye… But the ear is strongly subject to delusions about the location and distance of its objects because the images [of sound] do not reach it in straight lines, like those of the eye, but by tortuous and reflexive lines. … The sense of smells is even less able to locate the source of an odour. -

ChromoStereoscopic Rendering for Trichromatic Displays Le¨ıla Schemali1;2 Elmar Eisemann3 1Telecom ParisTech CNRS LTCI 2XtremViz 3Delft University of Technology Figure 1: ChromaDepth R glasses act like a prism that disperses incoming light and induces a differing depth perception for different light wavelengths. As most displays are limited to mixing three primaries (RGB), the depth effect can be significantly reduced, when using the usual mapping of depth to hue. Our red to white to blue mapping and shading cues achieve a significant improvement. Abstract The chromostereopsis phenomenom leads to a differing depth per- ception of different color hues, e.g., red is perceived slightly in front of blue. In chromostereoscopic rendering 2D images are produced that encode depth in color. While the natural chromostereopsis of our human visual system is rather low, it can be enhanced via ChromaDepth R glasses, which induce chromatic aberrations in one Figure 2: Chromostereopsis can be due to: (a) longitunal chro- eye by refracting light of different wavelengths differently, hereby matic aberration, focus of blue shifts forward with respect to red, offsetting the projected position slightly in one eye. Although, it or (b) transverse chromatic aberration, blue shifts further toward might seem natural to map depth linearly to hue, which was also the the nasal part of the retina than red. (c) Shift in position leads to a basis of previous solutions, we demonstrate that such a mapping re- depth impression. duces the stereoscopic effect when using standard trichromatic dis- plays or printing systems. We propose an algorithm, which enables an improved stereoscopic experience with reduced artifacts. -
A Novel Walk-Through 3D Display
A Novel Walk-through 3D Display Stephen DiVerdia, Ismo Rakkolainena & b, Tobias Höllerera, Alex Olwala & c a University of California at Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara, CA 93106, USA b FogScreen Inc., Tekniikantie 12, 02150 Espoo, Finland c Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan, 100 44 Stockholm, Sweden ABSTRACT We present a novel walk-through 3D display based on the patented FogScreen, an “immaterial” indoor 2D projection screen, which enables high-quality projected images in free space. We extend the basic 2D FogScreen setup in three ma- jor ways. First, we use head tracking to provide correct perspective rendering for a single user. Second, we add support for multiple types of stereoscopic imagery. Third, we present the front and back views of the graphics content on the two sides of the FogScreen, so that the viewer can cross the screen to see the content from the back. The result is a wall- sized, immaterial display that creates an engaging 3D visual. Keywords: Fog screen, display technology, walk-through, two-sided, 3D, stereoscopic, volumetric, tracking 1. INTRODUCTION Stereoscopic images have captivated a wide scientific, media and public interest for well over 100 years. The principle of stereoscopic images was invented by Wheatstone in 1838 [1]. The general public has been excited about 3D imagery since the 19th century – 3D movies and View-Master images in the 1950's, holograms in the 1960's, and 3D computer graphics and virtual reality today. Science fiction movies and books have also featured many 3D displays, including the popular Star Wars and Star Trek series. In addition to entertainment opportunities, 3D displays also have numerous ap- plications in scientific visualization, medical imaging, and telepresence. -
3D-Con2017program.Pdf
There are 500 Stories at 3D-Con: This is One of Them I would like to welcome you to 3D-Con, a combined convention for the ISU and NSA. This is my second convention that I have been chairman for and fourth Southern California one that I have attended. Incidentally the first convention I chaired was the first one that used the moniker 3D-Con as suggested by Eric Kurland. This event has been harder to plan due to the absence of two friends who were movers and shakers from the last convention, David Washburn and Ray Zone. Both passed before their time soon after the last convention. I thought about both often when planning for this convention. The old police procedural movie the Naked City starts with the quote “There are eight million stories in the naked city; this has been one of them.” The same can be said of our interest in 3D. Everyone usually has an interesting and per- sonal reason that they migrated into this unusual hobby. In Figure 1 My Dad and his sister on a keystone view 1932. a talk I did at the last convention I mentioned how I got inter- ested in 3D. I was visiting the Getty Museum in southern Cali- fornia where they had a sequential viewer with 3D Civil War stereoviews, which I found fascinating. My wife then bought me some cards and a Holmes viewer for my birthday. When my family learned that I had a stereo viewer they sent me the only surviving photographs from my fa- ther’s childhood which happened to be stereoviews tak- en in 1932 in Norwalk, Ohio by the Keystone View Com- pany. -
KODAK MILESTONES 1879 - Eastman Invented an Emulsion-Coating Machine Which Enabled Him to Mass- Produce Photographic Dry Plates
KODAK MILESTONES 1879 - Eastman invented an emulsion-coating machine which enabled him to mass- produce photographic dry plates. 1880 - Eastman began commercial production of dry plates in a rented loft of a building in Rochester, N.Y. 1881 - In January, Eastman and Henry A. Strong (a family friend and buggy-whip manufacturer) formed a partnership known as the Eastman Dry Plate Company. ♦ In September, Eastman quit his job as a bank clerk to devote his full time to the business. 1883 - The Eastman Dry Plate Company completed transfer of operations to a four- story building at what is now 343 State Street, Rochester, NY, the company's worldwide headquarters. 1884 - The business was changed from a partnership to a $200,000 corporation with 14 shareowners when the Eastman Dry Plate and Film Company was formed. ♦ EASTMAN Negative Paper was introduced. ♦ Eastman and William H. Walker, an associate, invented a roll holder for negative papers. 1885 - EASTMAN American Film was introduced - the first transparent photographic "film" as we know it today. ♦ The company opened a wholesale office in London, England. 1886 - George Eastman became one of the first American industrialists to employ a full- time research scientist to aid in the commercialization of a flexible, transparent film base. 1888 - The name "Kodak" was born and the KODAK camera was placed on the market, with the slogan, "You press the button - we do the rest." This was the birth of snapshot photography, as millions of amateur picture-takers know it today. 1889 - The first commercial transparent roll film, perfected by Eastman and his research chemist, was put on the market. -

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˚. -

3D Television - Wikipedia
3D television - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_television From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 3D television (3DTV) is television that conveys depth perception to the viewer by employing techniques such as stereoscopic display, multi-view display, 2D-plus-depth, or any other form of 3D display. Most modern 3D television sets use an active shutter 3D system or a polarized 3D system, and some are autostereoscopic without the need of glasses. According to DisplaySearch, 3D televisions shipments totaled 41.45 million units in 2012, compared with 24.14 in 2011 and 2.26 in 2010.[1] As of late 2013, the number of 3D TV viewers An example of three-dimensional television. started to decline.[2][3][4][5][6] 1 History 2 Technologies 2.1 Displaying technologies 2.2 Producing technologies 2.3 3D production 3TV sets 3.1 3D-ready TV sets 3.2 Full 3D TV sets 4 Standardization efforts 4.1 DVB 3D-TV standard 5 Broadcasts 5.1 3D Channels 5.2 List of 3D Channels 5.3 3D episodes and shows 5.3.1 1980s 5.3.2 1990s 5.3.3 2000s 5.3.4 2010s 6 World record 7 Health effects 8See also 9 References 10 Further reading The stereoscope was first invented by Sir Charles Wheatstone in 1838.[7][8] It showed that when two pictures 1 z 17 21. 11. 2016 22:13 3D television - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_television are viewed stereoscopically, they are combined by the brain to produce 3D depth perception.
