Abstract:
1. An imaging system for multiple view imaging comprising at least a first and second video processing device, each of the at least first and second video processing devices being for displaying a video image on one or more display devices, each video processing device receiving at least a first sequence of image frames comprising at least a second sequence of image frames and a third sequence of image frames, the at least second and third sequences of image frames being for generating at least first and second video streams, respectively, wherein the individual image frames of the second sequence are multiplexed with the individual image frames of the third sequence so as to form frame pairs, each frame pair containing an image frame from the at least second sequence of image frames and from the third sequences of image frames and each video processing device outputting a fourth sequence of image frames, the fourth sequences of image frames being for generating at least one of the at least first or second video streams, the fourth sequence of image frames from the at least first and second video processing devices being derived from the first sequence by repeating at least one of the frame pairs or by eliminating at least one of the frame pairs and wherein the imaging system is adapted to utilize a linking signal for synchronizing images displayed by at least one of the at least the first and second video processing devices on the display device.
