Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention enables images to be viewed by alternating left and right shifts on a single camera, and by synchronizing this and viewing the images alternately with the left and right eyes, the images can be viewed as a three-dimensional image. This article relates to a 3D video game device.

In conventional video game devices, the only way to express the depth direction is to use a perspective drawing method and a general video image method. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to obtain a video game device that expresses the depth direction using a stereoscopic image method and has a stereoscopic image effect.

The V* embodiment of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

The present invention relates to a stereoscopic video game device as shown in FIGS. In addition, there is a shutter portion lO that blocks the video screen in synchronization with the video screen of the video receiver 1, and a see-through hole 2 for both the left and right eyes.
1 and ρ, and is disposed on the front surface of the shutter section 10 for guiding both the left and right eyes of the player P, an operation control section 2 for the player to control the progress of the game, and an operation control section 2 for controlling the progress of the game. Based on the operation signal from the control unit 2, the left and right images of the object pattern 3L, as shown in FIG.
A p-thick system "3 is provided which processes the deviations LZ and BZ of 3R and displays the image on the video receiver 1, so that the image of the video receiver 1 can be viewed by the player P through the shutter section 10, A three-dimensional image including an object pattern is obtained by a visual afterimage phenomenon caused by visual stimulation of one eye and short-term stimulation of the other eye.

Here, the video receiver 1 is housed together with the logic system 3 in a rectangular parallelepiped-shaped cabinet 4 with its screen facing upward, and the image is placed above it at an angle of approximately 45 mm. It is reflected by the mirror 5, and enters the shutter section 10 through the circular transparent window 6.A semi-transparent smoke filter 7 is attached to the front surface of the cabinet 4, and the smoke filter 7 is attached to the front surface of the cabinet 4. A cylinder 8 is installed vertically in front of the smoke filter 7, and a shutter part 10 and a part of the handle of the operation control part 2 are installed in the middle of the cylinder 8. Note that the screen of the video receiver 1 cannot be viewed by anyone other than the player.

Furthermore, the structure of the shutter part 10 and the contact part is as shown in Figure 3, a semi-circular part is light transmitting and the other semi-circular part is not light transmitting. and right shirt plate 1
2 are moving in the same direction and at the same speed, and the opaque parts are 18 mm apart from each other.
The left motor 13 and the ivy plate 12 are rotated so as to be shifted by 0°. The left shirt flap 11 and the right shirt flap 12 are housed in a rectangular parallelepiped box 15 so as to be shifted and overlapped. And on the front of box 15,
There are two circular left viewing holes 21 and right viewing holes n for the player P to view the screen of the video receiver 1 with his left and right eyes, so as to be in contact with the bottom of the rotation of the shirt shirt plates 11 and 12.
is provided. In addition, the structure of the contact part is 5K as shown in Figure 3. Above the transparent hole 21 and ρ, there is a separate contact plate with a gentle arc-shaped concave part B for contacting the forehead of the player P. is attached so that when the player P touches his forehead with the recessed part, he can see the image through the viewing holes 21 and η from his left and right eyes. In this case, the player P's eyes are set so as not to come into direct contact with the viewing hole 21 and ρ. The reason for providing such a five-piece forehead is that players generally dislike having their eyes come into direct contact with the viewing hole, and if there is no such eyepiece, players will not want to put their hands between their forehead and the viewing hole. This is because you put it in and then let it go. Here, to give a specific numerical example, the inner wall of the box 15 and the left and right shirt plates 11.12 are separated by about 1 to 21, the distance between the centers of the see-through holes 21 and 4 is about 65 mm, and the diameter thereof is Each has about 20 fins, and the width of the fins is about 10 to 15 cW.
L and depth is approximately 3-5cR.

Under the above-mentioned conditions, as shown in FIG. 2, when viewing a video receiver with an additional inch distance of 11rL, an appropriate field of view can be determined. This is exactly the same as in FIG. 1 except that the crystals are crystallized at right angles by mirrors.

Next, the video receiver 1 receives the video input signal of ω frames per second alternately on the right side, one frame of video signal at a time, and as a result, the left frame is videoed every second, and the right frame is videoed with additional frames. It has become. The operation control section 2 is an operation section for general video game devices with push buttons, joysticks, balls, etc. for depth (Z) direction operation, and is controlled by signals generated by player operations on the Z axis. Movement of the object pattern in the Z-axis direction - 9 deformation capes can be performed. In other words, in a war game, you can create a deformed cape by firing td, firing from one side in the Z-axis direction, firing from the other side from the same direction, and deforming the cape by exploding in the same direction. The logic system 3 performs arithmetic processing on the positional relationship, arithmetic operations, and logical operations on the deviation of the left and right images of the object pattern, and as shown in Figure 4, the ratio in the depth (Z) direction is 2. The left and right images 3L and 3R are generated one after another by the result of multiplying by a proportionality constant k according to .

Here, if the deviation of the right image 3R is ``N'' and the deviation of the left image 3L is ``LZ'', then the following holds true. Further, if the data required according to the movement in the Z direction is calculated in advance and stored in a list in the program memory, it is also possible to process deviations in the Z direction in real time.

In such a configuration, if the operation is explained according to the time charts shown in Fig. 5(a) to 5), the video reception*
On ff1l, the left image and the right image are alternately displayed as shown in FIG. 2(a). The left shirt flap plate 11 and the right shirt flap plate 12 alternately repeat transmission as shown in FIGS. Therefore, for example, when in the left eyelid state, the right shutter plate 12 blocks the viewing hole η, making it impossible to see the image with the right eye, while in the right eyelid state, the left eyelid screen 11 blocks the viewing hole 2], so the left eye cannot see the image. It doesn't matter if you measure the footage. Therefore, the vision of the left eye is like the 5th ita)! It becomes relatively gradual, including S Kenchen's vision, and similarly - the vision of the right eye becomes as shown in (e) of the same figure, so the overall stereoscopic vision of player P with both eyes becomes as shown in (e) of the same figure. It is possible to obtain 3D images.

As seen in time charts (a), (b), and (C), if the shirt board state is not swapped within the switching time of the left and right image states, the left and right image states will change. The opaque state of the shatter board digs in and the quality of the image deteriorates.

In the above embodiment, the shutter part is mechanically constructed by rotating the shutter plate, but transparent ceramic,
A voltage may be applied to a flat plate of lead oxide piezo porcelain called PLZT to change the light transmittance of two light plates sandwiching the flat plate.

Further, although the left and right shutter plates (11, 12) are rotated by two motors (13, 14), they may be driven by one motor. moreover.

The contact portion may be a flat surface, and members for blocking light may be arranged on both sides in parallel, and thus the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments.

As stated above, the present invention is a video game device configured using a stereoscopic video system, and therefore has the advantage of providing a stereoscopic effect with an epoch-making sense of depth.
