Abstract

An observer is presented, through a pair of viewing glasses (300), a field/frame multiplexed, synthesized 3D image (22) on single monitor (200) generated from a 2D video signal (20). The field/frame multiplexed, synthesized 3D image is generated in a converter (100). A controller (140) controls the left and right eye vision of the glasses (300) along an unobstructed path (30) without the need of any connecting wires. A wide range of input sources can provide the 2D input video signal (20) for conversion. The resulting synthesized 3D image is especially suited for medical and other purposes which require realistic, accurate and visually comfortable 3D visualization of video images, as for example in minimally-surgery to allow complex navigational and manipulational procedures carried out over a continuous period of many hours.
