Abstract
In order to estimate the degradation of picture quality of a stereoscopic image reconstructed with a monocular image and the disparity data that have some fluctuations, a series of experiments are carried out. The results show that the degradation is most sensitively detected when the spatial frequency of the fluctuation is about 1/12 cycle/min. At the same time, it is shown that the minimum threshold of detecting the fluctuation is varied in inverse proportion to the visual acuity of viewers, and the threshold is about 1/6 min (peak-to-peak) when the averaged visual acuity is 1.20.
