Abstract: A system, apparatus, method, and computer-readable media are provided for the capture of stereoscopic three dimensional (3D) images using multiple cameras or a single camera manipulated to deduce stereoscopic data. According to one method, a dongle or cradle is added to a mobile phone or other device to capture stereoscopic images. According to another method, the images are captured from cameras with oblique orientation such that the images may need to be rotated, cropped, or both to determine the appropriate stereoscopic 3D regions of interest. According to another method, a single camera is manipulated such that stereoscopic 3D information is deduced.
Abstract: A system, apparatus, method, and computer-readable media are provided for the viewing of stereoscopic three dimensional (3D) images using shutter glasses. According to one method, a wireless protocol is used to communicate stereoscopic synchronization information. The glasses may scan wireless, infrared, and visible light signals to deduce the timing necessary for stereoscopic synchronization with the display. The necessary synchronization information is then determined from the information in these signals. Other methods incorporate this technology into a mobile device, a cradle or dongle that attaches to the mobile device, or an otherwise ordinary pair of sunglasses.
