Patent number: 8723932Abstract: General anaglyphs may be rendered using multiple primary colors to display the first and second images of stereoscopic images. Retinal rivalry in the anaglyphs may be avoided by using transformations which balance the brightness contrast in the first and second images. Certain primary colors may be advantageous for rendering anaglyphs in six, five, four, and three primary colors. A white primary color is advantageous for displaying a monochrome second image with a color first image. General anaglyphs may be dynamically created by a display apparatus using certain transformations and communication with external sources. Four-primary-color anaglyphs may be compressed into three channels for transfer to a display apparatus. A user may select the primary colors of the first and second images and the relative brightness of the second image. Several methods to display general anaglyphs are disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2012Date of Patent: May 13, 2014Assignee: Monte Jerome RamstadInventor: Monte Jerome Ramstad

Patent number: 8570363Abstract: General anaglyphs may be rendered using multiple primary colors to display the first and second images of stereoscopic images. De-saturated primary colors are advantageous for rendering anaglyphs in six, five, four, and three primary colors. A white primary color is advantageous for displaying a monochrome second image with a color first image. General anaglyphs may be dynamically created by a display apparatus using certain transformations and communication with external sources. Colored viewing filters with de-saturated transmission spectra provide better color when viewing anaglyph images.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2012Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Inventor: Monte Jerome Ramstad

Publication number: 20120064944Abstract: Stereoscopic images may be represented in four coordinates where a first image is represented in three coordinates and a second image is represented of one coordinate. The brightness contrast is the property largely used in stereoscopic perception. The brightness and color of the first image is represented in three coordinates while the brightness of the second image is represented in the one coordinate. Color perception is dominated by the first image. A universal file format with four channels allows the stereoscopic images to be displayed as anaglyphs or as two full color images or as non-stereoscopic images. The anaglyphs may be rendered in three primary colors or four primary colors providing wide compatibility with traditional and specialized display apparatus. The universal file format facilitates methods to capture, display, convert, and communicate stereoscopic images.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 12, 2011Publication date: March 15, 2012Inventor: Monte Jerome Ramstad

Publication number: 20110063726Abstract: This invention provides apparatus for viewing anaglyphic stereoscopic images with color filters comprising polymer interference films. The interference films may be mounted in lightweight paper frames or rigid frames. The interference films may have a curved profile in order to reduce reflections into a user's eyes. The interference films may be laminated to a substrate. The viewing apparatus may comprise adsorption films in order to block primary colors and attenuate primary colors reflected into a user's eyes.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2010Publication date: March 17, 2011Inventor: Monte Jerome Ramstad

Publication number: 20080297530Abstract: A yellow primary color is used to increase the brightness of images displayed in four primary colors including red, green, blue and yellow primary colors. The yellow primary color may have a luminosity approximately equal to the luminosity of the red primary color or less, and not contribute substantially to the color gamut. A white primary color may be comprised of yellow light in the region near 570 to 590 nm and cyan light in the region near 475 to 485 nm. A blue primary color may be comprised of light shorter than about 475 nm and light longer than about 500 nm.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 2, 2008Publication date: December 4, 2008Inventor: Monte Jerome Ramstad
