- Projects, ideas: Dr. Dmitriy Vatolin
- Implementation: Alexander Voronov, Denis Sumin, Marat Arsaev, Vyacheslav Napadovsky, Alexey Borisov
In cooperation with IITP RAS
About the Report
The report presents detailed (246 pages) evaluation results of 5 S3D films, which were captured with stereoscopic camera systems.

The report comprises three main parts.
- Thorough description of visual-discomfort potential causes while viewing stereo 3D films (see page from report)
- Detailed analysis of five films. Each film description consists of
two parts:
- Full per-frame analysis with charts showing metric values for each frame; (see page from report)
- Visualizations demonstrating artifacts in frames that earned a
poor rating according to our metrics
(see page from report).
Please, see example visualizations for Galapagos at the VQMT3D project page.
- Overall film comparison. Here go charts depicting the average metric
values and distribution of these values in each film.
(see pages from report:
one,
two).
Some charts showing overall comparison results are presented in the Overall evaluation results section on this page.
Professional stereographers contributed to the analysis with valuable comments and feedbacks.

Overall evaluation results
In this section we present overall comparison charts.
First chart in each subsection (e.g. Depth Budget or Vertical Disparity)
shows average score of each film according to the metric.
The second chart is an integral histogram which shows distribution of
metric values throughout the film.
Please, read more about the charts and particular films in the
report.

Vertical Disparity
