3D Modelling/Examples/Red-Green Anaglyph

From Wikiversity
Paper anaglyph filters produce an acceptable image at low cost and are suitable for getting a 3D experience.

Red-Green Anaglyph Videos and Images

[edit | edit source]

The 3D perception is determined by the provision of different images to each eye. Red-Green Anaglyphic Videos and Images use implement this concept by combining a red and an green image into one image.

The 3D effect can only be seen with a low cost paper red-green glasses:

Learning Task

[edit | edit source]
  • Explain how you could use a 3D model of a building (e.g. created with Photogrammetry to generate Anaglyph 3D images.
  • Shift the camera view in eye distance horizontally for the 3D model of your choice and export the two images of the camera view.
  • Process the left and right image as Anaglyph 3D image.

Options to Create Anaglyph Images

[edit | edit source]
Left Image Right Image Anaglyph Result
Mircophone Image LEFT
Mircophone Image RIGHT
Mircophone Image ANAGLYPH
Remark: You see that,
  • the cyan image shifted to the left and
  • the red image shifted to the right.
place the filters of the glasses as follows:
  • cyan filter is placed before the right eye and
  • red filter is placed before the left eye (opposite of shift of colored images)

Crop Overlapping Area

[edit | edit source]

Crop the overlapping area of the object in ONE image. The shift of one image to match specific elements in the left and right eye image determines the size of the overlapping area. The single eye image are processed with a red and cyan/green filter and to the colored images are merged into one image with opacity of the layers.

Learning Task

  • Learn about the generation of Anaglyph 3D images.
  • Learn how to install the Anaglyph script in GIMP step by step.
  • Explain why the two images for the OpenSource Anaglyph Plugin in Gimp needs a horizontal shift of about 3-4cm to generate the 3D illusion with the Red-Green-glasses.
  • Explain the purpose of the color filters of your 3D glasses.
