ABSTRACT:
An improved method and apparatus for the production of superior quality three dimensional images utilizing a multi-lens camera and a multi-lens enlarger configured according to a standard of arrangements. The number of lenses used in the camera and the enlarger is selected to he greater than the resolution capabilities of the human eye and the lenticular print system. The width of a zone of the lineiform image is determined by the distance between two adjacent images on the focal plane of the lenticular screen of a point projected from a distance at or beyond the distance limit through adjacent projecting apertures of the enlarger. The projecting apertures of the enlarger are linearly arrayed and equally spaced within the accepting angle corresponding to the distance limit to construct a lineiform image without gaps between zones and without gaps between lines. Accordingly, a three dimensional image having orthoscopic effect, without stroboscopic effect, is produced in a one-step imaging and one-step composing process.
