San Francisco, California (USA) – Select presentations from Stereoscopic Displays & Applications 2013 – the world’s premier conference for 3D innovation – are now available for free viewing online.

Experts in 3D capture, perception, display, and applications convened at the 24th annual SD&A conference in February 2013, within the Electronic Imaging symposium coordinated by the professional organizations IS&T and SPIE. World-class research and expert opinions were presented in 15 technical sessions, two plenaries, two keynotes, and a panel discussion.

Highlights include:

Keynote: “History of Polarized Image Stereoscopic Display”

Vivian Walworth, who performed pioneering work at the Polaroid Research Laboratories (1944-1985) and StereoJet, Inc., gave a technical and personalized account of the history of polarization in stereoscopic display. This historic overview is not to be missed.

Discussion Forum: “3D Movies – Is There Enough Depth?”

Conference attendees had the opportunity to hear and question four world-class contributors to stereoscopy. Panelists included: Eric Kurland (stereographer at 3-DIY, whose work includes “The Longest Daycare”), Jenny Read (vision scientist at University of Newcastle), Paul Judkins (Director of Technical Film Products at IMAX Corp.), and Phil “Captain 3D” McNally (Stereoscopic Supervisor, Dreamworks Animation). Do today’s stereoscopic films have a too-restrictive depth budget? Are the movies compelling in and of themselves? The panel was moderated by conference co-chair Gregg Favalora.
