Packaging system providing spatial or focusing gaps between lenticular lenses and paired interlaced images

摘要

A packaged container for producing a graphical image. The packaged container includes a container having a side wall defining an interior space and a recessed surface. An interlaced image is provided on the recessed surface, and the packaged container includes a lens element positioned on the side wall to extend across the recessed surface proximate to the printed image and to leave a focusing gap between the lens element and the interlaced image. The lens element includes a plurality of lenses each having a focal point on or about the interlaced image. The lenses have a focal length determined by the thickness of the lens element combined with a depth of the recessed surface as measured from a side of the lens element to the interlaced image. The lens element can be provided in a wrap around label attached to the side wall on both sides of the recessed surface.
