Abstract: Some problems involved in the production of satisfactory three-dimensional motion pictures have not received much mention in the literature dealing with stereoscopy. Their practical solution has contributed marked improvements to the three-dimensional picture of today. The fundamental problem in projecting three-dimensional pictures is that of providing a “right-eye” picture that will reach only the right eye and be prevented from reaching the left eye, and to do the same for the “left-eye” picture. To attain this result two methods have been employed with success, namely: the “anaglyph” in which substantially complementary colors are employed in the viewing devices, and polarized light. The screen surface upon which three-dimensional pictures are projected by polarization methods is of extreme importance. The selection of the proper type of screen raises real problems but these also have been overcome in a practical way.
