    Abstract: Only 1 sheet from the photoed original picture is needed to perform the purpose of Lenticular-stereo printing. One original picture image is photoed with a digital camera (18), and downloaded to personal computer (12). When software is performed with a personal computer (12), two or more various distance below the pitch of Lenticular Lens shifts an original picture image to a transverse direction. The virtual picture of two or more sheets is generated from the original picture image of one sheet. According to the print directions from personal computer (12), printer (16) prints the virtual picture of two or more sheets in the shape of a strip nullof the direction of lengthnull by turns for every distance which subdivides the above-mentioned pitch in the same plurality as the number of sheets of a virtual picture. By this, the printed picture turns into solid image observed as a solid through Lenticular Lens.

    Abstract: A lenticular preprinting process producing a composite image which, when printed, is assembled with a lenticular lens material (18). The composite image is developed from a plurality of images (A-D) which include both graphic and textual images. Each of the respective images are digitized and a pixel array for the image is formed. Separate digital files are created for each image. Next, computerized files are separately created for continuous tone images and for linework images. From these computerized files, separate raster image files for the continuous tone and linework images are produced. Next, segments from each raster image file is combined in a predetermined sequence with segments from the other raster image files to separately interlace the respective continuous tone and line work images. The resulting combined files are now linked to produce an image having both continuous tone and linework constituents. An image plot is now produced whose characteristics represent a map of the interlaced continuous tone and linework images and which includes one or more desired visual effects.

    Abstract: The filmless method and printer for making 3D and animation pictures using a digital reflection-type matrix display device such as a digital micro-mirror device to sequentially display a plurality of 2D views, a light source to illuminate the display device to produce a reflected beam, and a projection lens to form an image from the reflected beam and expose it on a lenticular print material. To fill the image area underlying each lenticule on the print material, each 2D view is projected at a different angle. Two methods can be used: 1) In the scanning method, two of the three elements including the display device, the projection lens and the print material are moved to different positions to change the projection angle; 2) In the non-scanning method, the projection lens has a large aperture sufficient for covering the total viewing angle of the lenticules. To change the projection angle, the aperture of the projection lens is partitioned into a plurality of sections so that the image of each 2D view is exposed on the print material through a different aperture section. Preferably, with the non-scanning method, the image displayed on the display device is enlarged and formed on a diffuse screen and the image so formed is then exposed on the print material by the projection lens. The 2D views for making the 3D pictures can be electronically aligned before they are displayed on the display device. Thus, the key subject alignment process during printing is eliminated.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus in which a geometric graphic image of an object to be rendered as a depth image is created. The viewpoint of the viewer of the depth image is determined by the user. Once the viewpoint is determined the number of views is automatically determined along with the spacing between or positions of the views. The system adjusts the aspect ratio of each view and rotates the object prior to rendering. The rendered views are then stored as electronic interleaved images which are used to produce a depth image, such as a lenticular print.

    Abstract: A 3D printer that has a chemical processor in-line with the printer. The preferred printer is a single-stage printer that uses two video cameras with different magnification powers for acquiring images from 2D negatives for editing and key subject alignment. One video camera takes full view image for key subject selection and picture cropping, the other video camera which is used for acquiring image data for key subject alignment sees only an enlarged section of the image around the key subject. The single-stage printer uses an automated image matching algorithm to find the relative location of the key subject in each negative frame. The single-stage printer also includes a chemical processor so that photo processing can be part of an in-line printing process.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for electronically taking photographs of an object to be used for stereoscopic (three dimensional) reproductions of the object in which an electronic camera takes a plurality of electronic photographs of an object from each of a plurality of predetermined spaced positions relative to the object. The photographic image is converted into a video signal which is digitized and the digitized video signals of the images from the plurality of positions are utilized to produce a viewable representation of the object. In a preferred embodiment, the camera has a generally planar element for converting the image into the video signal and the planar converting element of the camera at each position is held in a common plane and the lens system for the camera at each position is kept in a plane generally parallel to the converting element plane and shifted relative to the image converting element of the camera to compensate for the different positions to have the same field of view at each position.
