ABSTRACT:
A three-dimensional image acquiring system includes a memory, first and second lens systems, a comparator, and an image file generator. The first lens system captures a first image of an object and the second lens system concurrently captures a second image of the object. The comparator compares the first and second images to determine differences between them. The image file generator generates a delta file based on the determined differences, and stores a three-dimensional image file that includes the delta file in the memory. A three-dimensional image viewing system reconstructs the second image from the first image and the delta file and presents the first and second images for viewing by a user.
