Abstract:
In recent years, three-dimensional (3D) stereo content has become familiar, and portable information devices equipped with a naked-eye 3D liquid-crystal display, such as smartphones, have appeared on the market. In addition, images created by conventional hand drawing, such as comics, are being created more frequently using a computer. In this study, we developed a 3D stereo comic creation tool in which a stereo image is created from pictures drawn on layers. We also developed a 3D stereo comic viewer application program that displays 3D pictures on a smartphone. This 3D stereo comic content creation technique is not intended to replace techniques based on 3D computer graphics, but is a useful, additional technique for the creation of 3D stereo comic content.
