I have a programme for the PC which converts 2d images to Anaglyph. The results are average with lots of ghosting. I've just read about the Chroma Depth glasses which don't need 2 images. Is this a good 3d system or a waste of time. | ||

Chris: for Chroma Depth you need a matematical model of the scene .... Have a look on this, to have a picture how Chroma Depth image look like: http://forum.gali-3d.com/viewtopic.php?t=37 | ||

Chris: The lenses used in the ChromaDepth process produce a stereoscopic image from a single 2-D picture by displacing specific colors in the picture to different degrees, producing the illusion of spatial depth between the colors. This process will create an acceptable 3-D image ONLY if the 2-D picture has its primary colors arranged in the proper location for each object in the picture. For practical purposes, this requires either computer-generated images or highly "doctored" and artifically colored photographs. Some CGI ChromaDepth pictures have a good 3-D effect, but natural, real-world photographs almost never present an acceptable 3-D image, despite advertising and press-release claims to the contrary. You can see examples of the 2-D images designed for ChromaDepth on the website www.chromatek.com. Even without the glasses, the exaggerated, artificial color required should be apparent. If you can find a free pair of the glasses, this technique is interesting to experiment with -- but in my personal opinion too limited to spend any real $$ on. |
