In the CMY on White model - Cyan is closest and Yellow is farthest away (with White at infinity). In the RGB on Black model - Red is closest and Blue is farthest away (with Black at infinity). Each color is shifted a different amount resulting in various planes of perceived depth.

How it Works: ChromaDepth glasses use prismatic filters that separate the image into the visible spectrum. This poster demonstrates examples of the process and offers advice on their usage and creation for visualization techniques. Unlike other stereoscopic processes the images look clear without the glasses (though rainbow colored) and are augmented into depth while wearing them. Chromostereoscopy is the process of using special prismatic glasses to turn color into stereoscopic depth. Other processes such as Red/Blue anaglyph process work both in print and on a computer screen but produce incomprehensible images when the glasses are not worn. A variety of frame styles, full color printing, and intricate die-cutting make it easy to customize the 3D ChromaDepth® glasses for maximum advertising impact.įor more information and a complete design guide on how to create ChromaDepth® images (or to buy stock ChromaDepth® glasses), visit our new site at for Use in VisualizationĪbstract: Traditional stereoscopic visualization requires either special projection technologies with polarized glasses or special display technologies with LCD shutter glasses to display depth.

The ChromaDepth® process encourages fantastic 3D illusions without compromising the quality of the image when viewed without the glasses. ROY G BIV! (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet). THE TECHNOLOGY: The ChromaDepth® glasses create striking, floating 3D images from normal 2D images by pulling the color red to the foreground and sorting the remaining colors according to their position in the rainbow. ChromaDepth® 3D glasses, an American Paper Optics proprietary exclusive, allows spectacular 3D images to be created and presented in film, video, television, computer graphics, smart phones, tablets, black light effects, and laser displays. DEPTH CHARGE: Prepare yourself for a depth charge beyond belief with the revolutionary 3D ChromaDepth® process.
