Abstract

The Cellular Neural Networks (CNN) providing for efficient analog array processing of images are used for revealing surface features hidden in different types of random-dot stereograms (RDS) coding 3D information in internal correlation. Although originally random-dot stereograms are for probing human stereopsis, they may also find application in engineering practice based on the method proposed for creating stereograms of real objects in optical environment using projector and camera. Also the concept of difference surface and difference stereogram is introduced and used for coding smooth surfaces.
