About Stereo3D Technology
Stereo3D is the use of computer technology to recreate the way we naturally see depth -- stereoscopically. Stereoscopic viewing describes how we use both eyes, each with a slightly different perspective, to perceive depth and perspective in a physical environment.
Stereo3D delivers the most realistic visual representation possible of complex digital models, giving architects, engineers, scientists, and medical and graphics professionals the best possible understanding of three-dimensional information and yields levels of technical proficiency not available using a typical 3D view.
StereoGraphics Stereo3D products have been in use for over a decade in key design and engineering centers within organizations such as General Motors, Ford, Caterpillar and NASA. Stereo3D products such as CrystalEyes, CrystalEyes Wired and Monitor ZScreen 2000i allow professionals dealing with large multi-dimensional data sets to visualize images more naturally, enabling earlier detection of design errors, enhanced design review and faster time-to-market.
About NASA Tech Briefs
NASA Tech Briefs, an official publication of NASA, is the largest U.S.-circulation engineering magazine. First issued as single sheet reports in the 1960s and converted to a magazine format in the 1970s, NASA Tech Briefs has been a joint publishing venture of NASA and Associated Business Publications since 1985, a pioneering government-private sector partnership that has saved taxpayers millions of dollars in publishing costs while dramatically increasing the magazine's reach to OEM design/development engineers and managers.
Today, NASA Tech Briefs' qualified circulation surpasses 207,000. The monthly magazine features exclusive reports of innovations developed by NASA and its industry partners/contractors that can be applied to develop new/improved products and solve engineering or manufacturing problems. Authored by the engineers or scientists who did the work, the briefs span a wide array of fields, including electronics, physical sciences, materials, computer software, mechanics, machinery/automation, manufacturing/fabrication, mathematics/information sciences, and life sciences. NASA Tech Briefs also contains feature articles on successful NASA spin-offs, profiles of NASA tech transfer resources, news briefs, and application stories. Regular columns describe new patents, industry products, software, and literature. NASA Tech Briefs can be found online at www.nasatech.com.
