Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a stereoscopic image forming tool capable of stereoscopically viewing a stereo pair image generated by an anaglyph method without separately requiring red and blue glasses for anaglyph.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Generally, when viewing a stereoscopic image, an anaglyph method is used. In this method, a stereo pair image (for example, a red image and a blue image) drawn in two colors (for example, red and blue) having a complementary color relationship is viewed through a two-color filter having no common transmission wavelength range. Thus, these two color images are selected / separated and stereoscopically viewed.
A stereo pair image by the anaglyph method can be easily printed on a card or the like, or can be easily provided by a 3D movie or a Web site on the Internet, and is widely spread.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the two-color filter of the prior art is generally configured as special glasses manufactured for viewing stereoscopic images. Therefore, in order to stereoscopically view a stereo pair image, red-blue glasses for anaglyph are separately required. Therefore, in order to appreciate a stereoscopic image by a stereo pair image, it is necessary to obtain red-blue glasses for anaglyph separately. Even when they are obtained, they must look for red-blue glasses for anaglyphs when viewing stereoscopic images.
[0004]
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a stereoscopic image forming tool that can stereoscopically view a stereo pair image without using separate anaglyph red and blue glasses.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In the stereoscopic image forming tool according to claim 1 of the present invention, the first opening (3a) and the second opening are spaced at a distance between both eyes on a portion of the support on which the stereo pair image is printed, where the stereo pair image is not printed . opening and (4a) bored, these openings (3a, 4a) set a first color filter and the second color filters in complementary colors in only a copy of the stereo pair images image in the mirror, the the stereo pair images transferred to a mirror, by looking through a first color filter and the second color filter, characterized in that the three-dimensional image is configured to allow viewing.
[0006]
According to this stereoscopic image forming tool, the stereo pair image (5) displayed on the support is copied to a mirror, and the stereo pair image (5) reflected on the mirror is transferred to the first color filter provided on the support. A stereoscopic image can be viewed by looking through the blue filter for right eye (3) and the red filter for left eye (4) which is the second colored filter. Therefore, this stereoscopic image forming tool does not require an anaglyph red-and-blue glasses separately.
[0007]
If the color of the first color filter and the color of the second color filter are complementary, it is not limited to blue and red mainly used in the anaglyph method. For example, the color of the first color filter is changed to green. Even if the color of the second color filter is changed to red, the stereoscopic image can be appreciated.
[0008]
The stereoscopic image forming tool according to claim 2 is characterized in that the first color filter is a blue filter (3) for the right eye and the second color filter is a red filter (4) for the left eye .
According to this three-dimensional image forming tool, red and blue-green are the strongest complementary color relationship among the 12 colors indicating so-called hue return, and the coloration relationship is very conspicuous. By using red and blue colors, a very clear three-dimensional image is obtained.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a front view of a stereoscopic image appreciation postcard according to the present embodiment, FIG. 2 is a stereoscopic image appreciation postcard according to the present embodiment, and an operation diagram when viewing a stereoscopic image, and FIG. 3 is the implementation of FIG. It is an image figure of the three-dimensional image appreciated with the three-dimensional image appreciation postcard which concerns on the form.
[0012]
First, the configuration of the stereoscopic image appreciation postcard 1 that is a stereoscopic image forming tool will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, the stereoscopic image viewing postcard 1, in the first opening 3a of the postcard 2 is a right-eye blue filter 3, together with the red filter 4 is provided for the left eye in the second opening 4a, the stereo pair images 5 Is printed and configured. The stereo pair image 5 is printed so that the left and right sides can be seen normally when viewed in a mirror.
In the present embodiment, the stereoscopic image viewing postcard 1 corresponds to the stereoscopic image forming tool described in the claims, the postcard 2 corresponds to the support (card) described in the claims, and is used for the right eye. The blue filter 3 corresponds to the first colored filter described in the claims, and the red filter 4 for the left eye corresponds to the second colored filter described in the claims.
[0013]
The first opening 3a and the second opening 4a is a right-eye blue filter 3 and the left-eye red filter 4 to postcard 2, about the center distance of the center points of the human eyes (for example, two colored filters 3, 4 is a circular opening necessary for mounting at a position separated by a distance between the center points of 4), and is opened at a position parallel to the shifting direction of the stereo pair image 5. Both openings 3a and 4a have a circular shape with a diameter of several centimeters (for example, 2.5 cm each).
[0014]
Further, in order to bond the two colored filters 3 and 4, a paste margin (not shown) is provided around the two openings 3 a and 4 a on the address writing side of the postcard, and the two colored filters 3 and 4 are bonded thereon. . For reinforcement, for example, doughnut-shaped paper (not shown) that is spread outward by several millimeters from the outside of the margin portion of the bonded colored filters 3 and 4, and further covers the margin portion of the colored filters 3 and 4. Glue in such a state.
[0015]
Note that the shapes and sizes of the openings 3a and 4a are elements for making eye contact with the two colored filters 3 and 4 from the viewing direction for the purpose of viewing the stereoscopic image 12 ( see FIG. 3). For example, it may be a polygon such as a triangle or a quadrangle, or may be a shape in which two openings 3a and 4a are continuous. Also, the size is around several millimeters to several centimeters. It doesn't matter.
[0016]
The blue filter 3 for the right eye and the red filter 4 for the left eye are colored filters for arranging the stereo pair image 5 in a three-dimensional manner, with the center point of the postcard 2 being arranged at a position that is about the center distance between both eyes of the person. By making the blue filter 3 for the right eye a blue color and the red filter 4 for the left eye a red color, the complementary relationship between the two colors of the blue color and the red color is strengthened, and a clearer three-dimensional image can be appreciated. Can do. When viewing the stereo pair image 5, the blue filter 3 for the right eye visually recognizes a red color image (red image 7), and the red filter 4 for the left eye has a function of visually recognizing a blue color image (blue image 6). As will be described later, it is possible to view a very clear stereoscopic image.
[0017]
The shapes of the right-eye blue filter 3 and the left-eye red filter 4 are circular. The size is approximately 3 to 5 mm larger than the diameter of the openings 3a and 4a (corresponding to the paste allowance). Moreover, the material shall be transparent, such as a cellophane, an acryl, and a plastic, and should be lightweight and thin. The shape and size are not limited to the shape and size of the present embodiment, and are appropriately changed according to the shape and size of the openings 3a and 4a.
[0018]
The stereo pair image 5 includes a blue image (thick line portion in FIG. 1) 6, a red image (thin line portion in FIG. 1) 7, and a planar image (broken line portion in FIG. 1) 8 made of the same image. In the stereo pair image 5 shown in FIG. 1, the blue image 6 and the red image 7 are a horse and horse pattern and date (2002.2.1), and the planar image 8 is a mountain pattern.
[0019]
The blue image 6 is an image that is an element for generating the stereo pair image 5 by the anaglyph method. In order to form a three-dimensional image clearly, it is suitable to use two color systems having a strong complementary color such as a blue color and a red color. Therefore, in this embodiment, an image of one color is generated in blue. Yes. The blue image 6 is visually recognized through the left-eye red filter 4. Similarly to the blue image 6, the red image 7 is also an image that is an element for generating the stereo pair image 5 by the anaglyph method. For the same reason as the blue image 6, in the present embodiment, the other color image is generated in red. The red image 7 is visually recognized through the blue filter 3 for the right eye.
[0020]
The blue image 6 and the red image 7 are images for generating a three-dimensional image using the parallax of the human right eye and left eye. Therefore, when the stereo pair image 5 is viewed horizontally from the front, the blue image 6 is generated by being shifted in the left horizontal direction in order to visually recognize the blue image 6 by the red filter 4 for the left eye. Similarly, in order to visually recognize the red image 7 with the blue filter 3 for the right eye, the red image 7 is generated while being shifted in the right horizontal direction.
[0021]
The planar image 8 is a planar image, and is viewed as a planar image through both the filters 3 and 4. Needless to say, the colors are not limited to complementary colors. Further, the stereo pair image 5 is generated as a horizontally reversed image for viewing in a mirror.
[0022]
In the stereoscopic image appreciation postcard 1 shown in FIG. 1, the stereo pair image 5 is composed of a blue image 6 and a red image 7 having a strong complementary color relationship as elements for stereoscopic viewing. Blue is used for the color, and red is used for the color filter for the left eye.
[0023]
Since the stereoscopic image appreciation postcard 1 is constituted by the following (a) and (b), only the right-eye image (red image 7) is displayed on the right eye when the image is viewed in a mirror. Only the left-eye image (blue image 6) can be visually recognized. Then, in order to correctly view the stereo pair image 5 in which the shifting direction is parallel to the arrangement direction of the two filters 3 and 4, an image element in which the human eye is directed inward is felt close, and the image in which the eye is directed outward The element is felt away. In other words, each color image 6 and 7 is selected through the filters 3 and 4 so as to be viewed and clearly stereoscopically viewed by erasing colors from each other. In addition, an image portion with a large shift interval can be seen closer, and as the shift interval becomes smaller, the image portion appears gradually apart.
(A) When the stereo pair image 5 is viewed from the front side of the sentence surface 2a of the postcard 2, the arrangement of the red image 7 is shifted in the right parallel direction from the arrangement of the blue image 6.
(B) As seen from the addressing side of the postcard 2, the blue filter 3 for the right eye and the red filter 4 for the left eye are separated from the center of the human eyes by the center interval, and the blue image 6 and the red image 7 is arranged at a position parallel to the shifting direction.
[0024]
In the stereoscopic image appreciation postcard 1 configured in this way, the two colored filters 3 and 4 and the stereo pair image 5 are composed of colors having a strong complementary color relationship, so that a very clear stereoscopic image can be appreciated. Can do. In addition, since the arrangement direction of the two colored filters 3 and 4 is configured in parallel with the shifting direction of the blue image 6 and the red image 7, a three-dimensional image can be formed with very high accuracy.
[0025]
Next, with reference to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a method for viewing a stereoscopic image using the stereoscopic viewing postcard 1 will be described. The viewer 11 holds the stereoscopic viewing postcard 1 and stands in front of the mirror 10, and points the sentence surface 2 a side of the postcard 2 (stereoscopic viewing viewing postcard 1) on which the stereo pair image 5 is printed in the direction of the mirror 10. Next, the viewer 11 puts his eyes on the blue filter 3 for the right eye and the red filter 4 for the left eye provided in the postcard 2, and views the stereo pair image 5 reflected in the mirror 10 through the filters 3 and 4. Watch together. When viewing in this way, a stereoscopic image 12 in which the human horse 12a and the date 12b are stereoscopically viewed is formed on the front surface of the mountain 8 which is a planar image as shown in FIG.
[0026]
As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to above-described embodiment, It can implement with a various form.
For example, the relationship between the colors of the two colored filters may be a complementary color relationship, and is not limited to a combination of blue and red, and may be other combinations such as a combination of red and green and blue and yellow.
[0027]
In the present embodiment, the support is a postcard, and a stereo pair image is printed only on the text side of the postcard. For example, the support is a desired card and the stereo pair is printed on both sides (front and back). If it is configured to print an image, it is possible to appreciate two-dimensional images on a single card.
In addition, when there are other stereo pair images, such as confectionery or other gifts, they can be used instead of ordinary red and blue glasses for anaglyphs.
[0028]
Further, the support is not limited to postcards, and can be applied to advertisement pages such as magazines and fashion magazine pages. In the case of a magazine or the like, a stereoscopic image can be easily enjoyed without requiring blue-red glasses for anaglyphs and without cutting out pages.
[0029]
Also, the use of 3D image appreciation postcards as direct mail results in high-impact direct mail, increasing the customer's opening rate and customer attraction, and developing more effective DM (direct mail) marketing than before. It is also possible to promote database marketing.
[0030]
Furthermore, in the present embodiment, a case where a stereo pair image is printed on a postcard as an off-the-shelf product is described. However, for example, an individual can create a stereoscopic image appreciation postcard as his work. In that case, a stereo image viewing postcard creation system, such as a postcard, a colored filter, a sticker displaying a stereo pair image or a graphic creation / editing software for stereo pair images such as Illustrator and Photoshop, and a manual for creating a stereoscopic image viewing postcard Alternatively, they can be sold as a kit.
[0031]
【The invention's effect】
According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the two colored filters and the stereo pair image are integrally provided on the support, the stereo pair image is displayed on the mirror without the need for an anaglyph red-and-blue glasses. You can take a photo and appreciate the 3D image.
[0032]
According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the complementary color relationship acts strongly between the blue color and the red color of the two colored filters, the stereoscopic image becomes very clear.
[0033]
According to the third aspect of the present invention, since the arrangement direction of the two colored filters is parallel to the color shift direction of the stereo pair image, a stereoscopic image can be formed very accurately.
[0034]
According to the invention described in claim 4, by using the support as a card, it is possible to easily and mass-produce the product at a low cost, and a consumer can appreciate a stereoscopic image easily and inexpensively. be able to.
