Abstract

This paper reviews much of the basic literature on stereopsis for the purpose of providing information about the ability of humans to utilize stereoscopic information under operational conditions. This review is organized around five functional topics that may be important for the design of many stereoscopic display systems: geometry of stereoscopic depth perception, visual persistence, perceptual interaction among stereoscopic stimuli, neurophysiology of stereopsis, and theoretical considerations. The paper concludes with the presentation of several basic ideas related to the design of stereoscopic displays.
