Publication number: 20150237327Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2015Publication date: August 20, 2015Applicant: 3-D XRay Technologies, L.L.C.Inventors: Wade Anthony Rustici, Mark Wade Grubb, James Benjamin Dye

Publication number: 20140268324Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 18, 2014Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: 3-D Virtual Lens Technologies, LLCInventor: Eric Rosenthal
