76 results about "Stereoscopic depth" patented technology

Stereoscopic vision or Stereopsis (from stereo meaning solidity, and opsis meaning vision or sight) is the process in visual perception leading to perception of stereoscopic depth. In turn, stereoscopic depth is the sensation of depth perception that emerges from the fusion of the two slightly different projections of the world on the two retinas.
