Abstract: A picture book, folding card, or card-case, and modifications for larger displays, all of which show film-like animation, as well as other types of lenticular images, and all of which include embodiments allowing interchangeable images, as well as accommodating standard computer-printer print-outs, which have been made with accompanying software. In each case, a mechanical advantage is provided to effect relative motion between image and overlaying lenticular screen. The images can also be three-dimensional, or any one of many other, well-known lenticular image-types. Various methods of achieving mechanical advantage, and translation of motion-direction and type are shown, as well as different materials, and manufacturing techniques. Such a family of devices can be used as greeting, or novelty cards, educational or informational books, advertising premiums and displays, and can be wall mounted and/or motor-driven.

Abstract: A system for producing lenticular three-dimensional images in which the images are not bonded to the lenticular sheet, whereby a large number of images may be viewed using a single lenticular sheet. Such images may be used to construct a book or scroll of images, or may be sequentially displayed to form a motion picture. Three-dimensional encoded images are produced by capturing multiple parallax angle views of a scene, separating each view into narrow rectangular segments, interleaving these segments and displaying the resulting image on a flat surface. The image is placed at the focal plane of a lenticular sheet, and the interleaved segments of the image are aligned with the lenticules of the lenticular sheet. When the encoded image is viewed through the lenticular sheet a 3-D image is formed. The 3-D stereoscopic encoded image may be formed on a computer-driven printer, on a photographic emulsion or on a video display terminal.

Abstract: A system for producing low-cost, 3-D stereoscopic encoded images in which encoded images are produced by capturing multiple parallax angle views of a scene, separating each view into narrow rectangular segments, interleaving these segments and displaying the resulting image on a flat surface. The image is placed at the focal plane of a lenticular sheet, and the interleaved segments of the image are aligned with the lenticules of the lenticular sheet. When the encoded image is viewed through the lenticular sheet a 3-D image is formed. The 3-D stereoscopic encoded image may be formed on a computer-driven printer, on a photographic emulsion or on a video display terminal. The image may be a single still rendering or it may represent a frame of a motion picture.
