Brief 9-View Multiview Autosterescopic Video Frames Summary

How does it work? is a question I hear often. Here's a brief answer: Normal 2D video is usually 30 frames per second. That means for each second of video, you actually see 30 still pictures in a row, each displayed for 1/30th of a second.

For an autostereoscopic video, each frame consists of 9 different pictures, each picture from a slightly different viewing angle. So, for each second of an autostereoscopic video, you have 270 pictures.

For each frame, each of the 9 pictures is rasterized into a single image according to the rule of the 3D lenticular overlay. When that rasterized image is displayed by the LCD monitor, through the lenticular overlay, it then appears as an autostereoscopic 3D image.
