Stereopsis -Definition - Retinal disparity - Horopters - Stereoacuity - Stereoscopes and anaglyphs - Form-from-stereopsis - Correspondence problem - Autostereograms definition……….. Stereopsis is the means by which we determine the relative depth of objects by virtue of the fact that our two eyes view the world from a slightly different angle. Retinal disparity more definitions……. Retinal disparity is the difference in angle subtended by the image of an object between the two eyes, relative to fixation. Stereoacuity is the minimal detectable stereoscopic depth in units of disparity. Normal = 5-15 secs of arc; best is 2 secs. Fusion limit is the largest disparity that can be fused Diplopia is the experience of double vision Stereoacuity: Normal: 5-15 arc secs of arc; best is 2 secs.

Text labels can significantly add to visual clutter in graphical user interfaces, but are generally kept legible through specific label placement algorithms that seek visual separation of labels and other ob- jects in the 2D view plane. This work studies an alternative approach: can overlap- ping labels be visually segregated by distributing them in stereoscopic depth? The fact that we have two forward-looking eyes yields stereoscopic disparity: each eye has a slightly different perspective on objects in the visual field. Disparity is used for depth perception by the human visual system, and is therefore also provided by stereoscopic 3D displays to produce a sense of depth. This work has shown that a stereoscopic label placement algorithm yields user per- formance comparable with existing algorithms that separate labels in the view plane. At the same time, such stereoscopic label placement is subjectively rated significantly less disturbing than traditional methods.

  • Algorithms for Single Image Random Dot Stereograms
    Displaying 3D Images: Algorithms for Single Image Random Dot Stereograms Harold W. Thimbleby,† Stuart Inglis,‡ and Ian H. Witten§* Abstract This paper describes how to generate a single image which, when viewed in the appropriate way, appears to the brain as a 3D scene. The image is a stereogram composed of seemingly random dots. A new, simple and symmetric algorithm for generating such images from a solid model is given, along with the design parameters and their influence on the display. The algorithm improves on previously-described ones in several ways: it is symmetric and hence free from directional (right-to-left or left-to-right) bias, it corrects a slight distortion in the rendering of depth, it removes hidden parts of surfaces, and it also eliminates a type of artifact that we call an “echo”. Random dot stereograms have one remaining problem: difficulty of initial viewing. If a computer screen rather than paper is used for output, the problem can be ameliorated by shimmering, or time-multiplexing of pixel values. We also describe a simple computational technique for determining what is present in a stereogram so that, if viewing is difficult, one can ascertain what to look for.

  • Visual Secret Sharing Scheme with Autostereogram*
    Visual Secret Sharing Scheme with Autostereogram* Feng Yi, Daoshun Wang** and Yiqi Dai Department of Computer Science and Technology, Tsinghua University, Beijing, 100084, China Abstract. Visual secret sharing scheme (VSSS) is a secret sharing method which decodes the secret by using the contrast ability of the human visual system. Autostereogram is a single two dimensional (2D) image which becomes a virtual three dimensional (3D) image when viewed with proper eye convergence or divergence. Combing the two technologies via human vision, this paper presents a new visual secret sharing scheme called (k, n)-VSSS with autostereogram. In the scheme, each of the shares is an autostereogram. Stacking any k shares, the secret image is recovered visually without any equipment, but no secret information is obtained with less than k shares. Keywords: visual secret sharing scheme; visual cryptography; autostereogram 1. Introduction In 1979, Blakely and Shamir[1-2] independently invented a secret sharing scheme to construct robust key management scheme. A secret sharing scheme is a method of sharing a secret among a group of participants. In 1994, Naor and Shamir[3] firstly introduced visual secret sharing * Supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 90304014) ** E-mail address: [email protected] (D.S.Wang) 1 scheme in Eurocrypt’94’’ and constructed (k, n)-threshold visual secret sharing scheme which conceals the original data in n images called shares. The original data can be recovered from the overlap of any at least k shares through the human vision without any knowledge of cryptography or cryptographic computations. With the development of the field, Droste[4] provided a new (k, n)-VSSS algorithm and introduced a model to construct the (n, n)-combinational threshold scheme.

  • Psychophysics of Autostereogram Videos: Blur, Contrast and Repetition Period
    Psychophysics of Autostereogram Videos: Blur, Contrast and Repetition Period Georgios Papadimitriou I V N E R U S E I T H Y T O H F G E R D I N B U Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence School of Informatics University of Edinburgh 2010 Abstract Autostereograms are single image stereograms that take advantage of the binocular fusion and stereopsis of the human vision system. In this way, through autostere- ograms, we visualise in three dimensions objects or scenes that are embedded in two- dimensional images. In addition to (static) autostereograms there are autostereogram videos which are either videos that are created from animated depth masks of ob- jects/scenes or videos that are composed of sequences (frames) of static autostere- ograms. In the work presented in this thesis, we investigated the psychophysical as- pects of Random Dot Autostereogram (RDA) videos with respect to blur, contrast and repetition period of the random dots that constitute the repetitive patches inside a ran- dom dot autostereogram. The approach we followed focused on human performance data gathering by conducting experiments on human subjects that we tested for stere- opsis achievement and how fast it (stereopsis) was achieved. The stimuli we used were autostereogram videos of basic objects (cubes, tubes, pyramids, disks and pentagons) in which we varied the setting of one of the aforementioned features (blur, contrast etc.) each time while keeping the rest fixed. With respect to blur, our findings showed that there is an upper threshold of uniform blur radius at 33-35 pixels above which subjects were unable to achieve stereopsis.

  • Automatic Generation of a Realistic Looking Single Image Stereogram Using Stereo Vision
    2016 23rd International Conference on Pattern Recognition (ICPR) Cancún Center, Cancún, México, December 4-8, 2016 Automatic Generation of A Realistic Looking Single Image Stereogram using Stereo Vision Minh Nguyen School of Engineering, Computer and Mathematical Sciences Auckland University of Technology Auckland, New Zealand Email: [email protected] Abstract—Stereogram or autostereogram, frequently known as Magic Eye picture, is a two-dimensional (2D) image. Hidden inside each stereogram image is a floating object which appears in three-dimensional. We present a fully featured, web-based, online system that produces on-the-fly stereograms (or autostereograms) from a pair of side-by-side images. The system consists of three steps: (i) two side-by-side near stereo images are processed to reconstruct a disparity map, (ii) multiple regions of left or right images are automatically selected for building stereogram, (iii) base distance is estimated for the best human perception, and (iv) reconstruction of stereogram. Stereogram is built with a variety of transparency options, thus, multiple regions of images can be presented in the final output and display of transparent 3D layers in stereogram is possible. Moreover, the system is portable and can be used in smartphones with an Internet connection. Image Fig. 1.

Fulton Vision Concepts [email protected] April 30, 2017 Copyright 2004 James T. Fulton Dynamics of Vision 7- 1 7 Dynamics of Vision 1 The dynamics of the visual process have not been assembled and presented in a cogent manner within the academic vision literature. On the other hand, several authors have presented cogent descriptions applicable to the clinical level. The material assembled by Salmon at Northeastern State University2 in Oklahoma is exemplary (but superficial for the purpose at hand). The dynamics associated with the mechanism of interpreting symbols and character groups, called reading, has not been presented at all. Only the major eye movements related to reading have been studied in significant detail. Even the adaptation characteristic of vision as a function of illumination level has not been presented from a theoretical perspective, and the empirical data has not been analyzed in sufficient detail to provide a coherent understanding of the process. When assembled as a group, the mechanisms and processes associated with forming the chromophores of vision provide a new, interesting and unique perspective on the formation of those chromophores. This Chapter will assemble the pertinent data with respect to a variety of processes where their dynamic aspects are crucial to the visual function. 7.1 Characteristics & Dynamics of Retinoids in the body The following material is based on extensive empirical investigations that were largely lacking with regard to any contiguous theory of what the goals of the mechanisms involved were from the perspective of the visual modality.
