Scientists at the Ultra-High-Speed Optoelectronics and Information Processing Lab of the Physics Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (FIAN) have joined with engineers from the Samsung Electronics Research Center in Moscow to successfully produce a 3D display that adapts itself to each individual user, FIAN reported last week.
The new adaptive system presents multiangle stereo information to each viewer individually by tracking the position of the eyes with high tech lenses and micro-projectors. An augmented stereo image is built for each eye in the lens area while the distance between the micro-projectors changes adaptively.
The Russian researchers claim their invention makes 3D visualization easier for the brain while saving considerably on energy consumption in 3D projections.
