  • Patent number: 5519794
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for making autostereographic images wherein a computer is provided with a number of planar images in digital form, in a two-dimensional array of columns and rows of digital data. The columns are interleaved and rotated to form an interleaved and rotated image so that the interleaved columns of the rotated image are substantially unaligned with the rows and columns of the digital representation of this image. The digital representation of the image is rotated using an algorithm that is independent of resolution and number of input images. The resulting image is then output on a high resolution imaging device so that the columns of interleaving are substantially unaligned with both the direction of printing and the normal to direction of printing. The output from the high resolution imaging device is then placed in a registered relationship with a means for viewing selected ones of the input images, such as a lenticular or barrier screen.
