Fifteen months ago, I built this stable alu rig that can take up to six Canon TX1 synched with the mighty <a href="http://stereo.jpn.org/eng/sdm/index.htm">Stereo Data Maker</a>. </ br>
I never used it before, because until this week end I feared to have more than two a/v streams to handle. But I plan to soon start using <b>COSIMA</b> with its video features. I attended a well done talk by <a href="http://www.herbig-3d.de/">Peter Herbig, the creator of COSIMA</a> at the <a href="http://www.3dimensionale.at">3Dimensionale in Vienna</a>. </ br>
The rig was CNC milled from a single metal plate with the <a href="http://www.schaeffer-ag.de/en/download/frontplatten-designer.html">Frontplatten-Designer</a>, a simple and free CAD tool provided by the Schaeffer AG. With a few extra nuts, bolts and 90 degree flanges and some foam tube handle bars it forms to this : </ br>

I showed him the KMQ s3D viewing method on my iPad and we also tried to watch one of the KMQ clips on vimeo.
After many disappointing failed attempts with older Android tablets who always forced video to landscape orientation, I was surprised - the zoom was able to play a portrait video in portrait orientation.Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-28051603203609730632012-03-02T03:12:00.005-08:002012-03-02T03:24:12.278-08:00How to best watch trueColor3D video clips on Android tabletsI recently saw a trueColor3D video on a Samsung Galaxy Tab using the over/under method similar to my iPad experience.<br />Unfortunately the native Android Apps for vimeo and Youtube both limit playback to landscape videos, so I recommend to use the webBrowser to visit these sites. <br />And the limitations of framesizes and bandwidth are more strict as on my old iPad1. <br />There are some videos that play fine on iOS 4.2 but bring an "unknown" error on Android 2.3.x<br /><br />If anyone knows more about these obscure limits, please tell me more, so I can finetune the presets of trueColor3D.exeThomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-38112337022633629042012-02-15T00:40:00.002-08:002012-03-09T12:46:50.213-08:00I bet, iPad 3 and AppleTV will both support 3-DThere have been may rumors about the iPad 3 arriving in a few weeks.<br />None of the usual Ad driven evaporators of such rumors ever mentioned it to also support autostereoscopic viewing. So why should I think it will?<br /><br />Here are the hints :<br /><br />Several years ago 3M approached Apple offering their Light Guiding technology that replaces normal edgelit backgroud lighting with one that provides glasses free (autostereo) viewing with a normal LCD pattern. The trick : double frame rate LRLRLR... with alternating LED flashes from left and right edge. Guess what, the iPad3 LCD will have two edges lit by <br />LEDs.<br /><br />James Cameron who set the 3-D standards with Avatar said in 2012 something like :<br />The path to 3-D distribution is not 3DTV but tablets.<br /><br />Apple will soon also annouce their own TV after years of negitiations with major film studios.<br /><br />The widow of Steve Jobs recently stepped back from the stock share Jobs gathered from merging Pixar with Disney. Probably to please Dreamworks and others in joining the Party.<br /><br />Studios have been very busy to prepare upcoming film releases to fit the Apple pipe. What for if it would just be plain 16:9 and not 3-D (optimized for different screen sizes : 55" and 9.7") ?<br /><br />So either Apple goes 3-D full steam, or we can continue to use GRilli3D mask films or the over/under viewers to watch trueColor3D movies on our iPads (Gen 1 2 3)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Update</span><br />Meanwhile the <span style="font-style:italic;">new</span> iPad was introduced, without native 3-D. <br />A last chance would be, they don't tell anybody about either built-in 3M backlight or interlaced quarterwave layer in the display and enable this with a big bang in a few months<br />time. <br /><br />But it's probably just me fantasizing. But if you already have one of the retina iPads, put on your RealD glasses while surfing to a website with bright background. If you see stripes, please tell me, because then it uses a quarterwave plate interlaced pattern.Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-32890408839531238052011-10-07T03:47:00.000-07:002011-10-07T03:49:05.804-07:00Gorgeous Women 1I uploaded a slide show with depth-painted 3D stills made by the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/XtraDefinition3D">Youtube user XtraDefinition3D</a> aka <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/57605784@N06/">XD3D on flickr</a> <br /><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3o6KX0XtEQ">Gorgeous Women in trueColor3D for over/under viewing</a>Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-33381222867392548352011-09-28T03:37:00.001-07:002011-09-28T03:49:32.362-07:00Preparing trueColor3D compatible xXx samples for a local adult entertainment showThere are several online video websites who already provide 3-D porn as VOD.<br />Some decided to support downloads of clips that only play on Windows PCs with NVidia 3DVision and either a 3DTV or 3DLCD 120 Hz and shutter glasses.<br />Some don't care about preserving colors.

<br />I recently only worked on OSX Lion, so for now only the OSX binaries are available.
<br />
<br />This version is the first to run without <span style="font-weight:bold;">AviSynth</span>, the very powerful, but Windows-only video post processing toolbox.
<br />
<br />It outputs clips that can either play YT3D downloads for home use using <a href="http://www.inmethod.com/air-video/index.html">AirVideo</a>, or to upload your own work to Youtube (yes they play on iPad and iPhone, here are some <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/3DoniPad">examples</a> from a beta tester) or even <a href="http://www.vimeo.com/pixelpartner">vimeo</a>. You can also use it to prepare <span style="font-weight:bold;">3-D podcasts (testing)</span> or clips to <span style="font-weight:bold;">embed in iOS Apps</span> to sell on the <span style="font-weight:bold;">Apple AppStore</span>.
<br />
<br /><a href="mailto:thomas@pixelpartner.de">Email</a> me, if you need the new features also under Windows that is currently on version 0.94.
<br />
<br />Download the <span style="font-weight:bold;">source code</span> <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7623044/openKMQ/trueColor3D_0_96_src.zip">here</a>.
<br />Download the <span style="font-weight:bold;">binaries for OSX</span> <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7623044/openKMQ/trueColor3D_0_96_OSX_bin.zip">here</a>.
<br />
<br />Make sure to install both trueColor3D and qt-faststart as well as a decent version of ffmpeg in your path.
<br />I recently explained how to <a href="http://openkmq.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-get-ffmpeg-to-run-on-osx.html">install/build ffmpeg on OSX</a>.
<br />
<br />If you find this tool useful, please recommend it and consider opening a <a href="http://flattr.com">flattr account</a>.

<br />It's an open source project and parts of (depending on its configuration) it are not allowed to be redistributed in binary form without also providing the full source code.
<br />
<br />For now, I suggest you take the time to download some free tools and source codes and to start the so called build process on your Mac on your own.
<br />To build ffmpeg configured with all the parts needed to serve as trueColor3D's processing engine, you need
<br />
<br />- XCode from the Apple <span style="font-weight:bold;">MacAppStore</span>
<br />- The MacPorts project <span style="font-weight:bold;">http://www.macports.org/</span>
<br />- <span style="font-weight:bold;">FFMpeg</span> from it's source code repository
<br />
<br />You may need to launch the <span style="font-weight:bold;">Terminal.app</span> and type in and launch some commands.
<br />
<br />1) Install <span style="font-weight:bold;">XCode</span> (should be free for Lion and just $3.99 for SnowLeopard).
<br />2) Download the <span style="font-weight:bold;">port</span> command from the <span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.macports.org/">MacPort project</a></span> and follow the instruction to build it with the gcc compiler tha came with xcode.
<br />3) type in <span style="font-weight:bold;">sudo port install ffmpeg</span> and enter your admin/root password to download and build and install the ffmpeg program.Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-18189816616135698322011-08-02T03:24:00.000-07:002011-08-03T03:40:39.064-07:00trueColor3D now also runs on OSX<p><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW4yXLQXnwSaV4bP9KoPXndSmrnnZ_dfW9akZ9UkIVBfMGz6Pi34HhxK-Kd4GPFGe93qSgFsxRG1RBPWx3fqDdnp-JdBLVKX0pYGMBKMK8y9Y3HcbXORL27RcpG2eELrJB1HGLGbRwMx_i/s1600/trueColor3D_0_95_OSX.png"><br /><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 118px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW4yXLQXnwSaV4bP9KoPXndSmrnnZ_dfW9akZ9UkIVBfMGz6Pi34HhxK-Kd4GPFGe93qSgFsxRG1RBPWx3fqDdnp-JdBLVKX0pYGMBKMK8y9Y3HcbXORL27RcpG2eELrJB1HGLGbRwMx_i/s200/trueColor3D_0_95_OSX.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636201600737880722" /></a><br /><br/><br />First trueColor3D only ran on Windows, because it strongly depended on the AviSynth audio/video scripting environment that is tricky to run on non-Windows machines.<br /><br/><br />I started to reprogram many of the conversions from AviSynth to only use video filter commands in ffmpeg.<br />This is the first result.<br /><br/><br />On OSX, the following old/new stereo-layouts are supported :<br/><br />Youtube: my3D, iPad (over/under 1080p)<br />Vimeo: my3D, iPad (over/under), PC (over/under)<br />home use: my3D, iPad (iTunes), iPad (AirVideo)<br /><br/><br />Download version 0.95 from my DropBox : <br /><a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7623044/openKMQ/trueColor3D_0_95_src.zip">Source code only (v0.95)</a>, <br /><a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7623044/openKMQ/trueColor3D_0_94_win.zip">Windows 32-bit binary (v0.94)</a>, <br /><a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7623044/openKMQ/trueColor3D_0_95_OSX_bin.zip">OSX 32-bit binary (v0.95)</a><br /></p>Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-46988640076938213412011-07-26T05:55:00.000-07:002011-07-26T05:57:06.411-07:00Free 2D to S3D conversion softwareFind more information on the author's project page <a href="http://www.Gimpel3D.com/">http://www.Gimpel3D.com/</a>Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-9713607608115333812011-06-16T21:32:00.000-07:002011-06-16T21:40:23.749-07:00ADRI EV stereoscopic music video for iPad and other tablets<p>Watch this on a tablet device locked to landscape, but oriented to portrait using one of the over/under viewers (KMQ, jpsOneEye or BerezinOneEye).<br/><br /><iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/25050967?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&color=ff9933&autoplay=1" width="400" height="330" frameborder="0"></iframe><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/25050967">ADRI EV MUSIC VIDEO (iPad3D over/under)</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/pixelpartner">Thomas Kumlehn</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p><br /><p>This video was created with my open source tool <a href="http://openkmq.blogspot.com/2010/12/beta-release-win32-of-openkmq-3-d-video.html">trueColor3D</a></p><br /><p>The creator is <a href="http://vimeo.com/user1727415">Gyro Tod</a> for Kimera Productions.</p>Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-77220535085283834482011-06-13T15:04:00.000-07:002011-06-13T15:31:03.530-07:00New way to upload 3-D for iPad to vimeoMe and many viewers don't like the way, vimeo degrades videos with a width below 1280 to SD quality bitrate. For normal widescreen content that's fine, but not for our special portrait over/under layout. I experimented in the past with rotation, scale to bypass this, but either vimeo degraded the content or the iPad refuses to play it, becaue it was regarded too HiRes. <br />Today I found a new way by omitting black borders on the top and buttom and by rotating to the right. So, clips originating on 16:9 can now be uploaded as 1280 x 1040. Viewed with an orientation locked to landscape and held as portrait, this results in 1040 x 586 per eye and a 108px gap. And this layout fits both the vimeo and the iOS size restrictions. <br />I hope to soon reupload in the new format, but for GRilli3D fans there is still no alternative to view from "Download".Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-23114677551502004062011-06-13T13:03:00.000-07:002011-06-13T13:12:03.071-07:00New tags for Youtube 3D<p><a href="http://www.enhanced-dimensions.com/wordpress/?p=2518">Andrew Murchie's overview of the new Youtube 3D tagging.</a></p><br /><p>So now, you can simply upload a trueColor3D made over/under (aka iPad3D) clip of 768x1024 to Youtube and tag it with <br/><b>yt3d:enable=RonL</b><br/><br />This way, it plays on all FLASH-enabled browsers in selectable 3D modes, also plays on iPad using the KMQ or compatible viewers and can be used with StereoPlayer and NVidia shutter glasses.</p><br /><p><b>What's left ?</b><br/>Okay - for smartphone support you still need an undistorted side-by-side version like the my3D with 1280x480px, also made with trueColor3D.<br/><br />And for glasses-free viewing on iPad, we still need the GRilli3D1024 layout.</p>Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940081768320008972.post-24199649726820333832011-06-13T07:56:00.000-07:002011-06-13T07:57:42.236-07:00Cross eye 3D tutorial on Youtube<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBa-bCxsZDk&hd=1">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBa-bCxsZDk&hd=1</a>Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0
