  • Publication number: 20150237327
    Abstract: A subject, such as a patient, is restrained in a desired position for X-raying a body part of interest and the X-ray emitter is activated to create a beam of X-rays that pass through the subject and into a digital X-ray detector to create an image. Then the X-ray detector is refreshed for another exposure and the X-ray emitter is moved from its first position to a second position and a second X-ray is taken. Computer software manipulates the two images by aligning them, interlacing them and warping one image into the space of the other image. The resulting image can be immediately displayed on a computer or the like or stored as a computer file, such as a JPEG file for later viewing. The images can be viewed as three dimensional images when the viewer wears three dimensional viewing eyeglasses.

  • Publication number: 20140268324
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described for use of a barrier grid to enable the perception of three-dimensional (3D) content from inherently two-dimensional (2D) captured images. When viewing the captured image as a photograph, transparency or image displayed on an electronic display such as LCD, plasma, or DLP, a spacer and a barrier grid with vertical lines is placed in front of the display the barrier grid separates the horizontally displaced components of the image and directs the separated components to the left and/or right eye. Similarly, the image can be provided by a rear-projector screen, in which the image was stored and displayed digitally, photographically, or rendered by a computer device. The disparity contained in the horizontal displacement is perceived as depth information in the human brain. The result is that the perceived image is a three-dimensional representation of the actual depth information contained in the scene.

  • Patent number: 8723920
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments provide devices, systems and methods that enable viewing of three-dimensional images on an autostereoscopic display using a barrier grid of dynamically configurable grid characteristics. The barrier grid is configurable to include alternating light-transmitting and light-blocking portions that may be characterized by and configured using a set of one or more grid indicia. The cooperative display of an image on an image display device and the dynamically configurable barrier grid enables autostereoscopic 3D and 4D viewing of images.

  • Patent number: 8658877
    Abstract: A lighting system. Implementations may include an AC input power source coupled with a power conditioning and control module adapted output a low voltage high frequency pulse width modulated (PWM) signal. A remote transmission cable may be adapted to carry the low voltage high frequency PWM signal to a remote transformer adapted to convert the low voltage high frequency PWM signal to a high voltage high frequency PWM signal. A charge pump may be included which is adapted to receive the high voltage high frequency PWM signal and increase a voltage of the signal. A gas discharge tube may be coupled to the charge pump. A controller may be coupled to the power conditioning and control module and adapted to operate the gas discharge tube at two or more light intensity levels with the low voltage high frequency PWM signal.
