Abstract:
Humans visualize information in three dimensions and use a stereoscopic system for
depth cues. This visualization system uses LCD projectors to create a three dimensional
data visualization system. Each of two projectors use a polarizing filter to isolate its
image to one eye or the other of a human viewer wearing simple glasses with
corresponding polarizing filters. The two projectors are aligned and display an image in
the same space on a lenticular screen. Each projector is driven by a computer. The
display computers are controlled by a separate system which provides for all user
interaction. This visualization system is able to present three dimensional images stored
in a number of formats to the user. The visualization system is also able to display multidimensional
data to the user in parallel coordinates or within a Cartesian Coordinates
framework.
