To account for this our Three Region stereoscopic camera model is able to control the depth mapping from scene to display while allowing a defined region of interest in scene depth to have an improved perceived depth representation compared to other regions of the scene. This can be categorized as a focus+context algorithm that manipulates stereoscopic depth representation along the viewing axis of the camera. We present a new implementation of the Three Region stereoscopic camera model as a Utility plug-in for the popular modelling and rendering package 3ds max. We describe our user interface, designed to incorporate stereoscopic image generation into the user s natural work flow. The implementation required us to overcome a number of technical challenges including; accurately measuring scene depth range, simulating asymmetric camera frustum in a system only supporting symmetric frustum, merging multiple renderings and managing anti-aliasing in layered images. We conclude from our implementation that it is possible to incorporate high quality stereoscopic camera models into standard graphics packages.Implementing an Improved Stereoscopic Camera Model
