Method and apparatus for optimizing the resolution of images which have an apparent depth.

摘要

Several different methods alone or in combination can be used to reduce image jump or stutter. The image plane on which the original image is taken can be mechanically or electronically rotated about a point of rotation in the scene. The number of original images which are viewed could be increased by interpolation. The subtended viewing angle of the viewpoints can be reduced and viewpoints within the subtended viewing angle can be increased by interpolation. Reduced subtended viewing angle images can be created for each eye. The depth of focus of the images can be changed by identifying the images that jump and blurring the images outside the area of interest. The original images can be processed to move the image plan further back from the objects in the scene. Some of the images ordinarily existing between the right and left eye perspectives can be eliminated. The objects in the background of the scene being photographed can be identified and shifted forward in the scene. The highest detail volume of the images can be identified and the images can be processed to rotate around the volume. The highest detail area can be identified and the original images processed to displace the images to minimize the movement of the highest detail area. The original images can be viewed and a point within each image identified to align the point from view to view using a linear or other transformation. <IMAGE>
