We propose a 3D interaction and autostereoscopic display system that use gesture recognition, which can manipulate virtual objects in the scene directly by hand gestures and can display objects in 3D stereoscopy. The system consists of a gesture recognition and manipulation part as well as an autostereoscopic display as an interactive display part. To manipulate the 3D virtual scene, a gesture recognition algorithm is proposed, which use spatial-temporal sequences of feature vectors to match predefined gestures. To get smooth 3D visualization, we utilize the programmable graphics pipeline in graphic processing unit to accelerate data processing. We develop a prototype system for 3D virtual exhibition. The prototype system reaches frame rates of 60 fps and operates efficiently with a mean recognition accuracy of 90%.

— Stereoscopic and autostereoscopic projection-display systems use projector arrays to present stereoscopic images, and each projector casts one parallax image of a stereoscopic scene. Because of the position shift of the projectors, the parallax images have geometric deformation, which influences the quality of the displayed stereoscopic images. In order to solve this problem, a method based on homography is proposed. The parallax images are pre-transformed before they are projected, and then the stereoscopic images without geometric distortion can be obtained. An autostereoscopic projection-display system is developed to present the images with and without calibration. Experimental results show that this method works effectively.
