Description

Beschreibung:Description:

Bei der 3D-TV-Box handelt es sich um ein elektronisches Gerät, mit dem auf einem 100Hzfähigen PAL-Fernseher/Monitor/Beamer eine simulierte 3D-Wiedergabe und/oder reale stereoskopische 3D-Wiedergabe ermöglicht wird. Zur Betrachtung eines solchen SD-Bildes/Videos benutzt der Endverbraucher eine handelsübliche Shutterbrille.The 3D TV box is an electronic device that enables simulated 3D playback and/or real stereoscopic 3D playback on a 100Hz-capable PAL television/monitor/projector. To view such an SD image/video, the end user uses commercially available shutter glasses.

Funktionsprinzip:Functional principle:

Das Inputmodul (A) dient als variabler Eingang für alle gängigen Femseh- und/oder Videosignale (z.B. FBAS, Y/C, DV, HF). Je nach Ausführung lassen sich diese unterschiedlichen Eingänge (einer oder mehrere) im Inputmodul integrieren.The input module (A) serves as a variable input for all common television and/or video signals (e.g. FBAS, Y/C, DV, HF). Depending on the version, these different inputs (one or more) can be integrated in the input module.

Die elektronische Schaltung (E) wandelt, das vom Inputmodul (A) zur Verfügung gestellte 50Hz Signal in ein für die Ansteuerung der Shutterbrille erforderliches lOOHz Signal um. Dieses lOOHz Signal wird an der Anschlußbuchse (C) für Shutterbrillen (D) zur Verfügung gestellt.The electronic circuit (E) converts the 50Hz signal provided by the input module (A) into a 100Hz signal required to control the shutter glasses. This 100Hz signal is provided at the connection socket (C) for shutter glasses (D).

Die elektronische Schaltung (F) verarbeitet das vom Inputmodul (A) zur Verfugung gestellte 50Hz Signal folgendermaßen:The electronic circuit (F) processes the 50Hz signal provided by the input module (A) as follows:

• Das vom Inputmodul (A) zur Verfügung gestellte 50Hz Signal wird unverändert an das Outputmodul (B) weitergeleitet. Anwendung: Stereoskopische 3D-Wiedergabe von stereoskopischen 3D-Bildern oder-Filmen.• The 50Hz signal provided by the input module (A) is passed on unchanged to the output module (B). Application: Stereoscopic 3D playback of stereoscopic 3D images or films.

• Das vom Inputmodul (A) zur Verfugung gestellte 50Hz Signal wird für die simulierte SD-Wiedergabe aufbereitet. D.h., die beiden Halbilder des gelieferten Fernseh-/Videosignals werden horizontal gegeneinander verschoben. Die Intensität dieser Verschiebung wird ebenfalls durch die Schaltung (F) frei geregelt. Damit kann die Intensität des simulierten 3D-Effektes geregelt werden. Anwendung: Simulierte 3D-Wiedergabe jedes 2D-Bildes/Filmes. • The 50Hz signal provided by the input module (A) is prepared for the simulated SD playback. This means that the two fields of the supplied television/video signal are shifted horizontally against each other. The intensity of this shift is also freely controlled by the circuit (F). This allows the intensity of the simulated 3D effect to be controlled. Application: Simulated 3D playback of any 2D image/film.

Das Outputmodul (B) dient als variabler Ausgang für alle gängigen Fernseh- und/oder Videosignale (z.B. FBAS, Y/C, DV, HF). Je nach Ausführung lassen sich diese unterschiedlichen Ausgänge (einer oder mehrere, je nach Ausführung) im Outputmodul integrieren.The output module (B) serves as a variable output for all common television and/or video signals (e.g. FBAS, Y/C, DV, HF). Depending on the version, these different outputs (one or more, depending on the version) can be integrated into the output module.

Anmerkungen:Remarks:

• Dieses Funktionsprinzip bzw. die 3D-TV-BOX soll analog für 120Hz NTSC-Fernseher/Monitore/Beamer (bei einer Inputfrequenz des Fernseh-/Videosignals von 60Hz) angewendet werden.• This functional principle or the 3D TV BOX is intended to be used analogously for 120Hz NTSC televisions/monitors/projectors (with an input frequency of the television/video signal of 60Hz).

• Der Gebrauchsmusterschutz bzw. das Patent bezieht sich auch auf Teillösungen der SD-TV-BOX. D.h. geschützt werden soll auch eine Ausführung der 3D-TV-BOX nur mit einer der elektronischen Schaltungen (E) oder (F).• The utility model protection or patent also applies to partial solutions of the SD-TV-BOX. This means that a version of the 3D-TV-BOX with only one of the electronic circuits (E) or (F) is also to be protected.

• Der Gebrauchsmusterschutz bzw. das Patent bezieht sich auch auf Lösungen, die nach dem Prinzip der 3D-TV-B0X arbeiten, jedoch in Fernseher, Monitore, Beamer integriert sind.• The utility model protection or patent also applies to solutions that work according to the 3D TV-B0X principle, but are integrated into televisions, monitors and projectors.

Begriffsklärungen:Clarification of terms:

1. Simulierte 3D-Wiedergabe: ein normales zweidimensionales Fernseh- oder Computerbild wird virtuell in oder vor dem Wiedergabegerät (Fernseher, Computermonitor, etc.) über eine stereoskopische Betrachtungseinheit (z.B. Shutterbrille oder Polarisations-Brille; je nach stereoskopischem Darstellungs-Verfahren) für den Betrachter sichtbar gemacht. Dadurch entsteht beim Betrachter ein gewisser räumlicher Eindruck beim Betrachten eines so wiedergegebenen Bildes oder Filmes. 1. Simulated 3D playback: a normal two-dimensional television or computer image is made virtually visible to the viewer in or in front of the playback device (television, computer monitor, etc.) via a stereoscopic viewing unit (e.g. shutter glasses or polarized glasses; depending on the stereoscopic display method). This gives the viewer a certain spatial impression when viewing an image or film reproduced in this way.

2. Stereoskopische 3D-Wiedergabe: ein abgespielter „echter" stereoskopischer 3D-FiIm wird über eine stereoskopische Betrachtungseinheit (z.B. Shutterbrille oder Polarisations-Brille; je nach stereoskopischem Darstellungs-Verfahren) über das Wiedergabegerät (Fernseher, Computermonitor, etc.) für den Betrachter sichtbar gemacht, daß dieser einen realen räumlichen Eindruck beim Betrachten des Bildes oder Filmes erhält.2. Stereoscopic 3D playback: a played "real" stereoscopic 3D film is made visible to the viewer via a stereoscopic viewing unit (e.g. shutter glasses or polarized glasses; depending on the stereoscopic display method) via the playback device (television, computer monitor, etc.) so that the viewer receives a real spatial impression when viewing the image or film.
