ABSTRACT:
A means and method of generating disparate information for imparting depth perception to an image. An image is formed with a shadow from a plurality of energy sources. The energy sources each having a different locus. In one embodiment, using only two energy sources the image is detected by an image detector which permits the portion of the shadow formed by one energy source to be distinguished from the portion of the shadow formed by another source. In either a static-imaging system such as a still photograph or a dynamic system, such as television, means are provided for optically segregating the shadows viewed by each eye. In a monocular version of the dynamic imaging system, such as a motion picture film, a three-dimensional illusion is created by successively displaying images formed with different shadows.
