i3DSteroid360 vs MS3D ChaCha Video

Ricoh's Theta and others, spherical panorama cameras became readily available, and by using VR viewer everyone can enjoy full spherical stereoscopic images with immersive feeling. Unfortunately, even if you view same image on the left and right with the VR viewer, you will not get a stereoscopic effect. You need two equirectangular images shot at the same distance from the subjects, called "cha-cha shot" for decent stereoscopic effects. In case of twin spherical shots on THETA for 3D360 photo, special image processing is required for the geometrical alignment, which is different from regular non spherical 3D images such as; 1) No cropping allowed in the equirectangular images and the deformation have to be kept within the equirectangular shape. 2) Pseudo stereoscopic parts exist in parts of the equirectangular pair have to be swapped for decent stereo. This i3DSteroid360 APP is for 3D360 equirectangular alignment and VR viewing application. Ver1.60 - Fixed the application crash problem when image file is opened from the folder which have large number files. - Fixed the portrait image file orientation problem. - Improved the thumbnails view and the image scrolling performance.

MS3D ChaCha Video is a cellphone app, based on MS3D AI '3D SBS video' generation algorithm, that plays '2D ChaCha video' in side-by-side (SBS) format, using the frames timing differences to recreate 3D spatial information for both the left and right eyes. So that it also makes recording ChaCha video by the cellphone become practicable and fun. A ChaCha video is recorded using a unique method where the camera(cellphone) constantly moves horizontally—from left to right or right to left—while filming the subject. This motion causes each video frame to capture a slightly different perspective, similar to the ChaCha technique used in 3D photography. As a result, the video encodes depth information, making it suitable for restoring 3D views during playback. This recording style is known as the ChaCha video method, and the resulting footage is referred to as a ChaCha video. MS3D ChaCha Video app plays two video streams side-by-side according to frame timing difference of the same ChaCha video stream using MS3D '2D ChaCha video' to '3D SBS video' auto-generation AI algorithm. The frame timing difference can be dynamically adjusted by clicking the left arrow button or the right arrow button. So the spacial depth of the playback is recreated real-timely depending on your viewing preferences. The app is designed to be used in conjunction with a VR 3D mobile phone viewer --MS3D Glasses.
