    Abstract: A process and system for displaying large (more than 1 million voxels) volumetric 3D images gives substantially higher resolution than is achievable with prior art techniques. The process and system utilize a sequence of helical slices of a 3D data set to generate a series of 2D images on a reflective surface of a light modulator. The series of 2D images generated on the light modulator are projected into a volumetric 3D-space display using an illumination light source and projection optics. Voxels in 3D space are illuminated for each 2D projected image, each voxel being located at its corresponding spatial location such that the 3D image thus generated can be viewed from any angle in a walkaround fish-tank manner without utilizing any viewing aids.

    Abstract: A post-processing method and apparatus are described whereby a second image is formed by horizontally shifting pixel primitives of a first image by an amount determined by their respective depths to give a parallax shift. To avoid gaps appearing in the shifted image, two z-buffers are maintained during rendering of the first image with the second being loaded by discarded values of the first such as to provide a record of the first occluded primitive for each pixel. The horizontal shift is applied to the contents of both z-buffers and the results written to a third z-buffer such that gaps due to the varied shift applied to the first image values (the unshifted contents of the first buffer are filled by previously occluded values from the second buffer. The two images may then be output to a suitable stereoscopic display such as a Virtual Reality headset.

The optical apparatus has a first optical device for providing right eye picture information which has a first direction. The optical apparatus also has a second optical device for providing left eye picture information which has a second direction which is coincident with the first direction. The right eye picture information and the left eye picture information are compressed along the first direction. The imaging apparatus has an imaging device which has an imaging area for providing an output image signal. The imaging area has a right region and a left region. A focusing device in the imaging apparatus focuses the right eye picture information and the left eye picture information on the right region and the left region respectively. The recording and reproducing apparatus has a recording medium, a recording device and a reproducing device. The recording device records the output image signal from the imaging device on the recording medium. Further, the reproducing device reproduces a reproducing signal from the recording medium.

    Abstract: Rotating image data of a subject which is composed of two-dimensional image data for each predetermined angle of rotation of the subject is stored in storing device. Reference image data and image data delayed from the reference image data are selected out of the two-dimensional image data for each predetermined angle of rotation of the subject which are stored in the storing device, and are successively read out. One of the reference image data and the delayed image data which are read out is output as a left eye image signal, and the other image data is output as a right eye image signal.
