We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Classification of Barriers Closed and Open-Barrier Structures. It is possible to classify parallax barriers with respect to aperture boundaries. The apertures can either meet or not, and the barriers can then be called "open" or "closed," respectively. In the closed-structure type, each aperture is completely surrounded by barrier. Open-barrier structures consist of bands, either straight or staggered. Three-element arrangements can utilize either open or closed-type barriers. In order to transform open barriers to the closed-barrier type, alternate image row areas must be staggered 180° with reference to the preceding row. Figure 8 illustrates the image plane arrangement for rectangles and hexagons to go with a closed-type barrier. See Fig. 7b for a similar arrangement for circles.
