Projector Array for 3D Facial Display Projectors are rapidly shrinking in size, power consumption, and cost. Such projectors provide unprecedented flexibility to stack, arrange, and aim pixels without the need for moving parts. We present a dense projector display that is optimized in size and resolution to display an autostereoscopic life-sized 3D human face with a wide 110 degree field of view. Applications include 3D teleconferencing and fully synthetic characters for education and interactive entertainment. Our display is built from off-the-shelf components. Our projector array system consists of 72 Texas Instruments DLP Pico projectors each of which has 480x320 resolution. We drive our projector array using a single computer with twenty-four 1920x480 video outputs from four AMD FirePro W600 Eyefinity graphics cards. Our display achieves autostereoscopic horizontal parallax without lag.

Making Metallic Prints - Digital Photo Magazine It used to be that if you wanted to print on metal you’d have to make a tintype or, even earlier, go see Louis Daguerre. But in recent years, there’s been a resurgence in metallic printing options, some of which are actually printed on sheets of real metal, while others are just metallic-looking photo papers that impart a metallic look. Here’s a rundown of my experiences with a few great metallic printing options, including lab-made prints, actual metal prints and even inkjet paper options for making home prints with a metallic appearance. – Lab-printed metallic papers. – Lab printed on real metal. – Inkjet printing on metallic paper. Each of these methods produces beautiful prints.
Teaching Aid for Common Problems in Stereo3D Posted in Education The three-minutes silent stereoscopic 3D video here under is a teaching aid by Karel Bata. Feel free to download and use. Karel said: "I first show the first shot (①) 'Raw' and explain that this is straight from camera, but I've made some minor vertical and horizontal shifts to line the images up, and a small zoom in to eliminate cropping. Can the students spot anything else that may still need correcting? The errors ① Raw (no errors added)② Color differences between L & R③ One eye soft④ Vertical disparity⑤ Out of sync⑥ Rotational disparity⑦ Zoom disparity⑧ L & R reversed⑨ Raw (same as 1) Karel then ask them to look more closely at 9 and see if they can spot any errors they missed before. Actor The most excellent Alfie Albert About Karel Beta and The Clip The shot in this video is fan xxtract from '3DTango'. 3D Tango is a homage to Polish experimental film-maker Zbigniew Rybczyński.

Luxonline Histories: 1952 Festival of Britain. Norman Maclaren's 3D films shown at the Telekinema on the South Bank "British film…qualifies, uniquely, under all three of the Festival's main headings – as an art, a science and an industry" Gerald Barry, Director-General, Festival of Britain, in Films in 1951: A Special Publication on British Films and Film-Makers for the Festival of Britain, 1951 The 1951 Festival of Britain was organised by the Labour government at a time of economic hardship as a celebration of Britain's contribution to the 'common human heritage'. Wells Coates' functionalist Telekinema on the South Bank was specifically designed for the exhibition of 35mm, stereoscopic and stereophonic film, as well as large-screen closed-circuit television.

How to create a 3D Bluray Sun tests ‘sickly’ Nintendo 3DS | The Sun |Features NINTENDO’S 3DS is now the most returned games console ever as users struggle with its display. The Sun told yesterday how some gamers have reported feeling sick after playing the 3D machine. So we tested the device with our man Lee Price, 22. After Sun doctor Carol Cooper measured his resting blood pressure as 120/70, and pulse as 67, Lee played Street Fighter and Pro Evolution Soccer in four 30-minute slots. He took the advised ten minute break between games — and here we chart his progress: THIRTY MINS: Blood pressure 127/72, pulse 66. ONE HOUR: Blood Pressure 130/74, pulse 69. It’s tricking the senses in a way. ONE HOUR 30 MINS: 135/80, pulse 82. TWO HOURS: 140/84, pulse 85. LEE’S VERDICT: After two hours, it’s time to put it away. CAROL’S VERDICT: Children should not be left to play on it for hours.
Vergence-Accommodation Conflict: Why Bad 3D Literally Makes You Sick Vergence-Accommodation Conflict: Why Bad 3D Literally Makes You Sick If watching 3D content has given you a headache or even made you nauseous, you’re not alone. Good 3D requires a surgical level of scientific precision to pull off accurately. Unfortunately, many industry professionals openly acknowledge that there is significantly more bad 3D on the market than there is good 3D. That fact doesn’t help an industry trying to get a viewing population to embrace a technology that it has proved hesitant to accept. “I would argue that viewer discomfort is perhaps the biggest issue between widespread embracement of stereo 3D,” Dr. According to Banks, a person looking at the world through two eyes has to make two kinds of responses with those eyes. As much as 3D movies and television shows try to emulate a real-world viewing environment, it’s simply not the same. It’s nearly impossible for a content producer to know exactly where on the screen a viewer’s eyes will be looking.

The Misunderstanding of 3-D For the second time in as many years, an auteur’s descent into 3-D livened up the Cannes Film Festival. In 2014, the provocation came from Jean-Luc Godard, whose aggressive 3-D experiment, “Goodbye to Language,” brought cries of “Godard forever!” amid spontaneous applause. Could this be the onset of a novel, highbrow age in 3-D cinema? I’ve been looking forward to the moment when 3-D emerges as a mode unto itself—not a gimmick or a money-making adjunct to the standard fare but an art form of its very own. See how the auteurs smirk and keep their distance from 3-D, even as they sell it on the screen: “There’s something childish about” it, Noé told reporters in Cannes. Like Noé, Herzog didn’t think of using 3-D for his documentary “Cave of Forgotten Dreams” until just before production—and even then he never took a professional stereographer with him into the caverns. I liked the Herzog movie, as well as Godard’s, which made a fetish of its glitchy, sloppy stereography.

How to make a DCP (Digital Cinema Package) on your own computer When it comes down to projecting your film for the big screen, the DCP is quickly becoming an industry standard. But how can you get your film in this format and most importantly – can you do it on your own computer? Up until now the words Digital Cinema Package (DCP) had usually been followed by many pound (or other currency) signs. Numbers like £10k, £30k and £50k+ were being used. My initial reaction…? We are all doomed, there’s no way I’m getting my short films shown at high resolution on the big screen.Enter, OpenDCP and the modern age of Indie distribution.
