Abstract

A displayer. The displayer comprises a sensor mechanism for identifying where N different eyes of V viewers are in space, where N is greater than or equal to 2 and is an integer and V is greater than or equal to 1 and is an integer. The displayer comprises a displaying mechanism for displaying N different images to N different eyes where each image is a function of where each eye is in space to which the respective image is associated. The displaying mechanism is remote and apart from and out of contact with the V viewers. The displaying mechanism is in communication with the sensor mechanism. The displaying mechanism includes a computer which receives information from the sensor mechanism identifying where each eye is in space and produces the images. The computer causes a first image of the N images and a second image of the N images associated with a first viewer of the V viewers to be shown interleaved on the first screen wherein spacing between the interleaved first image and second image varies as a function of where each eye is in space to which the respective image is associated. A method for displaying.
