USE OF VIDEO-DISK TECH FOR INTERACTIVE STEREO DISPAYS

现代计算机生成的“3-D”图形显示提供了 通过密集计算和显示更新实现交互性- a 在更新时间方面相对昂贵的过程， 计算能力 Aerodyne Products Corporation提议， 通过在视频磁盘上预先记录有限的 三维图像的立体视图的数量 考虑. 每个视图的立体对提供伪3D 将图像显示给操作员。 当一个新的视角 如果需要，观众只需从屏幕上调出一个新的立体声对， 视频磁盘，一个快速的过程，基本上不需要计算。 这项技术将为观察者提供一个近距离的 近似于真正的3D显示，非常快速的交互性， 减少显示生成器的计算负担，或者 controller.

Modern computer generated "3-D" graphics displays provide interactivity by intensive computation and display updating - a process that is relatively costly in terms to update times and computational power. Aerodyne Products Corporation proposes to alleviate this problem by pre-recording on video-disk a finite number of stereo views of the three dimensional image under consideration. The stereo pair of each view provides pseudo 3-D displays of the image to the operator. When a new perspective is desired, the viewers simply calls up a new stereo pair from the video disk, a rapid process requiring essentially no computation. This technique will provide the observer with a close approximation to a true 3-D display, very rapid interactivity, and reduced computational burdens on the display generator or controller.
