Abstract
A method of presenting multiple image sources of approximately registered images so that the mind can easily fuse the multiple images into one image. Improvement to fusing can be achieved by alternating views between sources at 85 hertz or more. The insertion of a black frame between the succession of frames optimizes the neurological functions of the human optical system (produces retinal decay) such that the perception of a useful fused image is greatly enhanced. Stereographic fusion can also be achieved to allow for fusion of loosely registered datasets.
