Method of displaying an image in three dimensions and panel thus produced
The invention seeks to make it possible to display an image in three dimensions without additional display means, and to furnish a device that is easy to implement and applicable to drawings and paintings. To that end, a purpose of the invention is a direct display panel of images in three dimensions that comprises a bottom panel ( 1 ) and at least one structural panel ( 2, 3 ) provided with at least one cut-out defining at least two strips ( 2 a to 2 b, 3 b, 3 d ). The strips are attached above the bottom panel ( 1 ) by attachment means ( 5 ) so that at least a portion of strip ( 2 a to 2 g, 3 b, 3 d ) of the structure panel is at a defined distance (d, d 1, d 2 ) from the panel ( 1, 2, 3 ) on which said strip is attached.
1. A method of displaying images directing in three dimensions, the method being characterized in that it comprises the steps consisting of:
a) cutting at least two strips from at least one structured panel to form structured panel strips;
b) independently fastening the structured panel strips on a backing panel so that at least a portion of at least one of the structured panel strips is at a determined distance from the backing panel, the determined distance between said portion of said at least one structured panel strip and the backing panel on which the at least one structured panel strip is fastened being variable along a length of at least one structured panel strip portion to obtain an effect of relief, wherein the at least one structured panel strip is shaped with a predetermined curvature; and
c) displaying the image on the structured panel strip so that an observer located in front of the at least one structured panel can see a displayed three dimensional image on the at least one structured panel.
2. A method of displaying directly in three dimensions according to claim 1 , wherein the image being displayed is represented on the backing and structured panels.
3. A method of displaying directly in three dimensions according to claim 1 , wherein the image being displayed is projected onto the backing and structured panels.
4. A board for displaying images directly in three dimensions comprising a back panel and at least one structured panel provided with at least one cut defining at least two strips, the at least two strips being attached above the back panel by fixing means so that at least a portion of at least one of the strips of the structured panel is at a given distance from the back panel to which it is attached, the distance between the at least one strip portion and the back panel on which the strip is attached being variable for said at least one strip portion along the length of said at least one strip portion, wherein at least the one strip portion is shaped with a predetermined curvature to obtain a three dimensional effect.
5. The board according to claim 4 , wherein the fixing means are adjustable.
6. The board according to claim 4 , wherein the structured panels are made of a material that is sufficiently flexible to have said curvature.
7. The board according to claim 4 , wherein the at least one structured panel is prestressed.
8. The board according to claim 4 , wherein the at least one structured panel is cut to form strips that are independent from one another.
9. The board according to claim 4 , wherein the at least one structured panel is cut to form strips that are secured to a common base.
10. The board according to claim 4 , wherein the panels have one or more of different shapes and different dimensions.
11. The board according to claim 4 , wherein the strips of a given structured panel have one or more of different shapes and different dimensions.
12. The board according to claim 4 , wherein the strips are disposed vertically under standard viewing conditions.
13. The board according to claim 4 , wherein at least two of the structured panels are fastened in adjacent manner and superposed on the backing panel.
14. The board according to claim 4 , wherein all of the structured panels ( 2 , 3 ) are fastened in mutually superposed manner.
15. The board according to claim 4 , comprising structured panels fastened in adjacent manner, and structured panels fastened in superposed manner.
16. The board according to claim 4 , wherein the back panel is made of translucent material and the structured panel(s) present(s) a layer of translucent material and a layer of opaque material facing the backing panel.
