32.5L: Late-News Paper: Video Virtual Window Camera and Display System

A system has been developed utilizing a directly coupled, high‐resolution camera and display which provides an effective “video virtual window” which approximates the resolution of the human visual system. When viewed at a distance of approximately 0.5 meter, the system provides a full motion video experience equivalent to direct viewing of the scene by a human observer when the Fov of the camera and display are matched by selection of the appropriate lens. This paper and presentation describes the architecture and implementation of the camera system which was developed to provide the video stream, as well as the interfaces and transmission bandwidths required to achieve the objective. The implications of this concept, as well as ideas for improving its practicality are also introduced
