Recent years have seen increasing efforts to extend 3D technologies into the domain of image communications. These efforts received support from human factors studies indicating that 3D displays are highly appreciated by prospective users of image communications systems for their enhanced psychological effects (telepresence and communicative presence). On the other hand, these studies have revealed heavy technological requirements that must be met in order to avoid visible image distortions and increased visual strain.enhigh definition televisionhuman factorsrandom noisestereo image processingteleconferencingtelevision broadcastingthree-dimensional displays3d displaysadvanced image communicationsvisual representationcomputer-generated virtual environmentsremote guidanceinspectionmedical imagerymotion paralaxpsychological effectstelepresencevisible image distortionsvisual strain3dtv3d videoconferencingstereoscopic displaysperspective interpolationmultiview displaysdisparity resolutionHDTV621400journal article
