Generation of Anaglyph using High Resolution Acoustic Images

Abstract

This paper describes post processing of high resolution acoustic images. A multi-beam acoustic camera with high resolution can be a substitute for typical optical systems as an identification sensor of an unmanned underwater robot in turbid underwater environment. The acoustic images do not allow depth perception, however. Anaglyph method was adopted to generate stereoscopic images and to provide depth perception. There are several ways to generate anaglyph images and, basically, two images are required for each eye. In this paper, how to operate the acoustic camera to get two images are proposed. underwater environment. The acoustic images do not allow depth perception, however.
