[Paper] Development and Evaluation of Autostereoscopic 3D Live System with Real-Time Video Capture

We developed an autostereoscopic 3D live system using a minimal configuration of real-time stereo capture and a binocular autostereoscopic 3D display. We compared the displayed contents of the autostereoscopic 3D live system and conventional 2D video conferencing through both quantitative analysis and subjective evaluation. For the quantitative evaluation, we measured and assessed the fixation duration on the face area of the conversational partner using eye tracking. Our system showed longer fixation duration and a greater number of fixations on the face area compared to 2D video conferencing. For the subjective evaluation, we surveyed participants and analyzed the results. We used Wilcoxon signed-rank tests to compare our system with 2D video conferencing. The results show that our system achieves higher ratings for sense of presence and realism.
