Content Adaptation and Depth Perception in an Affordable Multi-View Display

Blog Article

We present SliceView, a simple and inexpensive multi-view display made with multiple parallel translucent sheets that sit on top of a regular monitor; each sheet reflects different 2D images that are perceived cumulatively.A technical study is performed on the reflected and transmitted light for sheets of different thicknesses.A user study compares SliceView with a commercial light-field display (LookingGlass) regarding the perception of information at multiple depths.More importantly, we present Litter Boxes automatic adaptations of existing content to SliceView: 2D layered graphics such as retro-games or painting tools, movies and subtitles, and regular 3D scenes with multiple clipping z-planes.

We show that it is possible to create an inexpensive multi-view display and automatically adapt content for Lamp it; moreover, the depth perception on some tasks is superior to the one obtained in a commercial light-field display.We hope that this work stimulates more research and applications with multi-view displays.
