A STUDY OF 3-D EFFECTS IN VISUAL SIMULATION. PHASE I.
Abstract
The report contains the analysis of the factored transparency film storage method of generating images of three-dimensional objects or terrain on a TV screen. The special set of factored transparencies containing the elevation and ground terrain information is read out by using a standard TV type of flying spot scanner and photomultiplier tubes. The description includes the system's deficiencies and drawbacks. Another method of three-dimensional image generation using a laser beam coherent light source is briefly described and the possible application using a hologram type of film storage media is included.
