Abstract
Projected image misalignment in a 3-D motion picture projector is corrected by shifting one of the projection lenses in accordance with a predetermined program during presentation of the motion picture. In one embodiment, manually initiated control signals for adjusting the lens shift are recorded in a memory and can be subsequently retrieved for automatically controlling lens shift. In another embodiment, lens shift is controlled by reading predetermined witness marks on the film.
