Abstract:
A viewing apparatus for producing a stereoscopic image for an observer, the viewing apparatus comprising: first and second video projectors for projecting respective ones of first and second video images of an object, the first and second images being different images which are one or both of spatially and angularly shifted in relation to the object so as to convey parallax between the images; a mirror arrangement comprising a concave mirror which receives light from the first and second video projectors, the mirror arrangement being located in relation to the first and second video projectors such that focussed images of the object are produced at the mirror arrangement; and a viewing lens for relaying exit pupils corresponding to each of the focussed images as reflected by the mirror arrangement to a viewing plane so as to be viewable at the respective eyes of the observer as a stereoscopic image without use of adapted eyewear; wherein the video projectors comprise first and second video displays which are driven by first and second video signals to display respective ones of the first and second video images, and first and second optical arrangements for focussing light from the respective images as displayed by the first and second displays to the mirror arrangement.
