Patent ID: 7679641

Claim:
A method for providing stereoscopic enhanced image viewing, comprising: providing a stereo pair comprising a left frame and a right frame, the stereo pair being operable to be viewed on a display, wherein the left frame comprises left frame main portion content and left frame edge content, the left frame edge content being proximate to an edge of the left frame, and further wherein the right frame comprises right frame main portion content and right frame edge content, the right frame edge content being proximate to an edge of the right frame; and shifting said left frame edge content laterally relative to said right frame edge content while simultaneously refraining from substantially shifting said left frame main portion content laterally relative to said right frame main portion content; wherein said lateral shifting tends to shift negative parallax elements toward positive parallax; and wherein said refraining from shifting leaves the parallax values of said left frame main portion content and right frame main portion content substantially unchanged.
