Abstract:
An apparatus to produce a substantially three-dimensional effect on viewable video content comprising:a luminous display generator having a display surface, configured to provide a viewable video content on said display surface; and a Fresnel lens having an inner surface and an outer surface, said Fresnel lens positioned at a lens application distance from said display surface of said luminous display generator, wherein said Fresnel lens is dimensioned and positioned at said lens application distance solely sufficient to provide a substantially three-dimensional effect on said viewable video content provided on said display surface of said luminous display generator, said lens application distance between said Fresnel lens and said display surface of said luminous display generator is related to a physical dimension of said display surface, and said lens application distance is substantially equal to a diagonal physical dimension of said display surface divided by approximately 3.38.
