Abstract

An arrangement for displaying a life-size live image of a person from a remote location in a three dimensional setting in a home location while providing the person in the remote location with a corresponding telepresence of the home location. One embodiment comprises: a video presentation system for displaying a person on a black or chromakey background 102; a two way mirror 2 or viewing both a setting 7 and the superimposed video image of the person 4; a video camera or pair of camers 5 positioned in line with the eyes of the superimposed image of the person 4; and a network connection between the home location and the remote location. Stereoscopic views may be used with the two way minor and a retroreflective surface to display life-size autostereoscopic live images of a person from a remote location in a 3D setting. A further embodiment includes a device (36, Figure 7) that allows for tracting of the eyes of the user.
