<p>An image depth improvement system comprises a perforated mask (10) interposed at a prescribed distance between a viewer (12) and a 2-D monocular image on a display screen (14) of a TV monitor (16). The perforations in the mask (10) are adapted to introduce a perceived disparity in the visual information received by the left and right eyes of the viewer (12) so that an illusion of 3-D stereoscopic depth will be perceived by the viewer (12). The system may also include an image processing means (20) for conditioning selected regions of the image so that the perceived disparity introduced by the perforated mask (10) is enhanced. The image processing can be done at the receiver or at the point of broadcast. The system is fully compatible with conventional TV and computer display monitors.</p> |
