Abstract

Improved methods for acquiring, storing, transmitting and displaying stereoscopic images are disclosed. Some of the benefits of these include simultaneous left/right view acquisition, transmitting and displaying images remotely from a stereoscopic camera, stereoscopic digital zooming wherein a subset of pixels is displayed, pan-tilt-zoom choosing of the displayed image, and interactive adjustment of images. Methods of using embodiments of the disclosed apparatus are capable of producing high resolution, real-time, stereoscopic image data while avoiding or mitigating the deleterious effects of spurious parallax.
