Abstract:
A method for converting a two-dimension image to a three-dimensional image, comprising:inputting a digital file representing a two-dimensional image of a plurality of visible objects into a digital computer; segregating a first object image data, representing a first of said visible objects, and a second object image data, representing a second of said visible objects, from said digital file; receiving a command data LPI representing a number of lenses per inch of a sheet having a plurality of longitudinal lenses; assigning said first object image data to a first image depth plane of a plurality of image depth planes and said second object image data to a second image depth plane of said plurality of image depth planes, wherein said assigning of said first and second object image data to said first and second image depth plane, respectively, is based, at least in part, on said command data LPI; generating a plurality of line images, each corresponding to a particular view angle, each line image defining a projection alignment, for said view angle, of said first object image data within said first image depth plane with respect to said second object image data within said second depth plane; interphasing the line images into a merged line formed file; transmitting the merged line formed file to an output device; generating through said output device a visible form corresponding to said transmitted merged line formed file; and displaying said visible form through said sheet having a plurality of longitudinal lenses.
