A projection method to generate anaglyph stereo images

An anaglyph image allows the perception of depth when observed through colored glasses such as the familiar red/blue glasses. Although the method is very old, the techniques used to generate anaglyph images are very empirical. This paper describes a projection method to generate anaglyph stereoscopic images using the spectral absorption curves of the glasses, the spectral density functions of the display primaries and the colorimetric properties of the human observer
