NAME
stereo3d - render a Raster3D scene as a side-by-side stereo pair
SYNOPSIS
stereo3d [options] [-png [outfile.png ]] < infile.r3d > outfile.png
stereo3d [options] -tiff [outfile.tiff] < infile.r3d >
outfile.tiff
stereo3d is a shell script that renders a single Raster3D input file as
a side-by-side stereo pair.
stereo3d uses the Raster3D utilities normal3d and render, and the
ImageMagick image processing package. Intermediate scratch files are
created in directory TMPDIR, if defined, otherwise in /usr/tmp.
The right eye and left eye views are separately rendered, optionally
given black borders, and merged to form a single side-by-side stereo
pair.
Input is from stdin, output is to stdout unless a filename is given as
an argument to the -png or -tiff options.
EXAMPLES
If the following line would render a single image:
render -tiff single.tiff < input.r3d
then the following line would render the same scene as a stereo pair
instead:
stereo3d -tiff stereo.tiff < input.r3d
OPTIONS
The options below are specific to stereo3d. All other options, e.g.
-labels or -gamma 1.2 are passed through to the render program.
-angsep
By default the stereo effect is generated by a shear operation. The
-angsep option creates stereo by using angular separation instead.
Neither option is perfect: the default handles shadows badly, and the
-angsep option blurs specular highlights.
-border
By default the left and right images are placed next to each other with
no intervening space and no frame around them. The -border option
requests a 4 pixel wide black border separating and surrounding the
component images.
