  • Patent number: 5543964
    Abstract: An apparatus and method of creating depth images with different depth image scenes being projected at different viewer orientations. At each of the orientations a different perspective series is provided to the viewer. To provide the different depth scenes at the different orientations, different depth content image slices of different depth content scenes are interleaved behind lenticules of a lenticular faceplate. The interleaving of different depth content scenes on an imaging substrate is accomplished by writing to a print file depth images of the different depth content scenes in successive positions prior to driving the printer with the print file contents to record on the substrate. The substrate is then attached to the lenticular faceplate.
