3D Stereographer’s application
Created as a result of customer demand and following intense consultations with 3D producers, Sony’s 3D production application optimises live 3D productions. It minimises operational costs, and integrates 3D production into a more traditional workflow.
3D images from stereoscopic camera pairs need delicate alignment in several axes. Even small errors can break the 3D illusion, or make it uncomfortable to view. Sony’s 3D production application fixes most minor errors and optimises adverse parallax settings. Operators save set-up time, knowing that many issues can be fixed digitally.
The 3D production application runs on the MPE-200 Image Processing platform, analysing and correcting 3D stereo alignment issues in real time.
Future developments will integrate the 3D production application and MPE-200 with Sony’s Cameras and Switchers to automate 3D stereo image correction and to reduce discomfort when switching between images with widely different depth content.
