Foundations of the Stereoscopic Cinema" by Lenny Lipton available on-line
The Stereoscopic Displays and Applications Virtual Library is a small online repository of selected Stereoscopic Imaging publications made possible by the organization skills of Andrew Woods. While pioneering books on the topic of stereoscopic imaging have been written - many are difficult to obtain. Andrew has managed to wrangle three classics for download, one of which was written by this week's seminar speaker and is available for single-copy personal-use download is "Foundations of the Stereoscopic Cinema" by Lenny Lipton - first published in 1982.
Please note that while the digital image of this book appears on the web to be larger than the photograph of Lenny which appears by the 511 seminar announcement, the book is not - in the real world - larger than Lenny.
More from Andrew's website:
"Foundations of the Stereoscopic Cinema" provides a wide ranging analysis of many stereoscopic topics. The book's primary focus is the stereoscopic cinema, however the book's many background sections are equally relevant to the many different types of stereoscopic display devices available today. This book provides a wealth of information for both the novice and also those already active in the field of stereoscopic imaging. Also included with the download is a 5 page errata list. The library thanks Lenny Lipton for allowing us to include this book as part of the SD&A Virtual Library.
