3d Glasses - How Do They Fool Our Eyes Into Seeing In 3d?
How do Polarized 3D Glasses work?
Polarized 3D Glasses
As a good example of stereoscopy, the polarized 3D glasses immediately creates the illusion of three-dimensional pictures by using filters to restrict light that normally would reach the eye. To present a stereoscopic motion picture, two images are projected superimposed onto the same screen through orthogonal polarizing filters. All the viewer has to wear is a cheap pair of spectacles which contain a similar filters. The effect is managed due to the fact that light is only passed through each filter when it has been similarly polarized and has blocked the orhogonally polarized light

Polarized light rays bouncing off a cinema screen often get diffused and this de-polarization can be problematic. If an aluminized or silver screen is used, the situation can be resolved. This means that a pair of aligned DLP projectors, some polarizing filters, a silver screen, and a computer with a dual-head graphics card can be used to form a relatively low-cost In 2003 the value was under ten thousand US dollars. For people wearing polarized glasses this is the perfect system for displaying 3d data Several commercial and open source packages were made available thanks to the system GeoWall, used for some time now in the Earth Sciences.

To create a combined image, partially silvered mirrors with two image screens at right angles to each other should result in a practical stereo image that can be presented to a single user. Whilst you will be able to view one of these images as a reflection, you will be able to view the other directly through the angled mirror. Correctly adjusted glasses are equipped and filters, properly polarized, are attached to the image screens. A similar technique used with appropriate polarizer’s is to use a single screen viewed in a horizontal partial reflector,with an upright image placed below the reflector. Cathode ray screens are best suited to polarizing glasses, since LCD screens contain polarizers to control the presentation of pixels, and the polarization can conflict.
An economical application of this principle was discovered in 2003 by Keigo Iizuka, using cellophane sheets on laptop display screens. Polarized stereoscopic pictures first came about in 1936, when Edwin H. Land first applied it to motion pictures. 1952 through 1955 was when the “3-D madness” hit most theatres ,offering patrons 3-D glasses. Only a minute amount of the total 3D films shown in the period used the anaglyph color filter method. The novel aspect is their use of digital projection and high-tech IMAX 70mm film projectors, with extremely trustworthy mechanical parts. Using varying forms of polarization, a completely new chronicle of 3D animation films are now beginning to reveal themselves to theaters. Polarization is not easily applied to home 3-D broadcast or DVD presentation. At this point only anaglyph glasses may be used to view the new HD shows and are beginning to be aired occasionally by NBC and the Discovery Channel.
