Abstract: A method of using a computer to generate virtual autostereoscopic images from a three-dimensional digital data set is provided. The method includes establishing a first point of view and field of view of a subject volume including a region of interest. The method also includes reading at least one scene parameter associated with the field of view of the subject volume. The method also includes determining a second point of view offset some distance and along some vector from the first point of view based on a value derived from at least one scene parameter. The method also includes generating and storing images and relevant metadata from said first and second points of view. The method also includes displaying the stored images by alternatingly displaying stored images from said first and second points of view. The method further includes performing one or more transformations on the alternatingly displayed images.

Abstract: A method of using two parallax scanning lenses to capture left and right points of view for stereoscopic three-dimensional display. The method includes establishing first and second parallax scanning points of view and overlapping fields of view of a subject volume including a region of interest. The method includes reading at least one scene parameter associated with the field of view of the subject volume. The method includes determining stereoscopic and parallax scanning setting based on a value(s) derived from at least one scene parameter. The method also includes computer generating and storing virtual parallax scanning stereoscopic imagery.

The method includes establishing a first point of view and field of view of a subject volume including a region of interest. The method includes reading at least one scene parameter associated with the field of view of the subject volume. The method includes determining a second point of view offset some distance and along some vector from the first point of view based on a value derived from at least one scene parameter. The second point of view at least partially overlaps the first field of view. The first and second points of view each create a view plane with a view orthogonal to the subject volume.
