1 Stereoscopic 3D Video Processor (3Gpbs/HD)
1.1 Introduction
The 3DX-3901 delivers all essential Stereoscopic 3D signal processing functions on a single card. It's ideal for
Stereoscopic 3D production applications using camera beam splitter rigs, as well as playout of Stereoscopic 3D
across 3Gbps/HD infrastructures.
The processor offers high quality conversion of multiple 3D formats, including Dual Link 1.5Gbps (SMPTE 292M),
Single Link 3Gbps (SMPTE 425M-B) Dual Stream and Single Link 1.5Gbps (SMPTE 292M), with side-by-side
encoding,
SENSIO ® 3D
encoding and over/under encoding. Different monitoring functions are available to perform
Anaglyph, Difference - Disparity, and Left or Right eye display.
The 3DX-3901 also offers horizontal and vertical flip, and interaxial adjustment to correct any stereoscopic 3D
camera misalignment due to the camera beam splitter rigs. It can also apply a Proc Amp to adjust the mirrored eye
to compensate for the loss/change of color level compared to the paired eye. A Horizontal Image Translation (HIT)
feature allows a user to adjust the depth positioning, or even simulate a 3D landscape scene from a 2-D scene. An
auxiliary output provides monitoring and full previewing of the 3D processing effects.
A Fiber I/O cartridge option significantly simplifies fiber installation and configuration. When the fiber cartridge is
fitted, the card can select between fiber and auxiliary output.
