A Method and apparatus is provided for producing and displaying pairs of spectrally-multiplexed gray-scale or color images of 3-D scenery for use in stereoscopic viewing thereof. In one illustrative embodiment of the present invention, pairs of spectrally-multiplexed color images of 3-D scenery are produced using a camera system records left and right color perspective images thereof and optically processes the spectral components thereof. In another illustrative embodiment of the present invention, pairs of spectrally-multiplexed color images of 3-D imagery are produced within a computer-based system which generates left and right perspective images thereof using computer graphic processes, and processes the pixel data thereof using pixel-data processing methods of the present invention. Thereafter, produced pairs of spectrally-multiplexed images can be recorded on diverse recording mediums, and accessed by the display system of the present invention for real-time display on diverse display surfaces including, for example, flat-panel liquid-crystal display (LCD) surfaces, CRT display surfaces, projection display screen surfaces, and electro-luminescent panel display surfaces. In the various illustrative embodiments of the display system, stereoscopic viewing of 3-D imagery is facilitated by wearing electrically passive or electrically-active light polarizing spectacles during the image display process of the present invention.

An audio encoder discards spectral components of an input signal and uses channel coupling to reduce the information capacity requirements of an encoded signal. Channel coupling represents selected spectral components of multiple channels of signals in a composite form. An audio decoder synthesizes spectral components to replace the discarded spectral components and generates spectral components for individual channel signals from the coupled-channel signal. The encoder provides scale factors in the encoded signal that improve the efficiency of the decoder to generate output signals that substantially preserve the spectral energy of the original input signals.

Light emitted from a light source is divided into measuring light and reference light. The reflected light from the object and the reference light are superposed. Interference light of the reflected light and reference light which have been superposed is detected. Intensities of the reflected light in a plurality of positions in the direction of depth of the object are detected on the basis of the frequency and the intensity, and a tomographic image of the object is obtained on the basis of the intensity of the reflected light in each position in the direction of depth. A compensating signal is obtained by removing the spectral components of the measuring light from an interference signal obtained by detection of the interference light, and the compensating signal is provided for detection of the intensities of the reflected light after a Gaussian transform.

A portion of a polarization maintaining (PM) optical fiber having two polarization states is analyzed. First and second spectral responses of the PM fiber portion are determined. In a preferred implementation, the spectral responses are determined using Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry (OFDR). Each polarization state of the PM fiber portion has a corresponding spectral component in the first spectral response. First and second spectral analyses of the PM fiber portion are performed using the first and second spectral responses. Based on those spectral analyses of the PM fiber portion, a first physical characteristic affecting the PM fiber portion is determined that is distinct from a second different physical characteristic affecting the fiber portion. Example physical characteristics include temperature and strain. An output signal related to the first physical characteristics affecting the fiber portion is provided, e.g., for display, further processing, etc.

An OLED device having green emitting regions disposed over a substrate, and wherein each green emitting region includes one or more light-emitting layer(s), a reflector and a semitransparent reflector respectively disposed on opposite sides of the light-emitting layer(s) and arranged to resonate light produced by such layers such that the light has a substantial green spectral component, and a yellow color filter element disposed in relationship to each green emitting region to produce green light.

A wideband, high quality audio signal is decoded with few calculations at a low bitrate. Unwanted spectrum components accompanying sinusoidal signal injection by a synthesis subband filter built with real-value operations are suppressed by inserting a suppression signal to subbands adjacent to the subband to which the sine wave is injected. This makes it possible to inject a desired sinusoid with few calculations.
