Digital Stereoscopy is the bible of modern 3D technologies where students, amateurs, and professional stereographers will find a clear description of all 3D facets of the stereoscopic business as well as detailed info on the 3D image production, distribution, and presentation workflow.

The range of media influenced by stereoscopy is impressive, going from motion pictures and television to print and Internet distribution. This book will let you discover the basic principles of how we perceive objects in 3D, how we can shoot 3D pictures and movies, what digital processes are required to produce quality 3D images, and how 3D movies are distributed. We will also study less known aspects of the production workflow, such as 2D to 3D conversion, storage, real-time transmission for broadcasting, and 3D Blu-ray authoring. The various methods of displaying and projecting 3D images will be covered, along with their pros and cons. The book provides a large number of technical details on all these subjects, making it a reference work for professionals in the field, with explanations of the most commonly used software, hardware, and standards. To make the book as useful as possible, an abundance of sidebars explaining the most important concepts in each chapter and a glossary of the most frequently used 3D-specific terms have been included.

The Amazon Fire TV Streaming Media device competes with other streaming devices in the marketplace, but before you spend your money on other technologies, such as Roku, Apple TV, or Chromecast, reading this guide will reveal what others might not want you to know. This Kindle book is not a step-by-step user's manual that shows you how to unwrap your new device, insert the plugs and cables, use your voice to find a movie, etc., nor does it tell you what will be displayed on the screen. If that is what you are looking for, you can read more about that in the Q&A section about this product. What you *will* discover when you read this guide is how the Amazon Fire TV streaming media device compares to its co-fellow competitors in the marketplace at this time. The author has included called-out sections in each chapter entitled, "What the user needs to know." This follows sections that describe the product, the competitors' products, and holds nothing back by telling you the details that you might not experience until you buy, install, and use the product. The author has included this feature so you won't be surprised or kept in the dark with how this product compares with other competitive devices, and what you can really expect once you get this device installed. Nothing is held back in this review-style book, but just know that the data and information that is revealed applies to all the devices and current information available to this author as of this publication date. Sometimes when you can't find the information you need online or in print, you just have to go out there, purchase, install, and use the products, and then decide what is the best deal and best experience for yourself and others. Then you write about it and hope it saves someone from spending money on other products that they'll regret. That's what this book is all about, and I hope it helps you decide what to look for when you buy a streaming media device.

Technical Management In A Manufacturing Environment - With Important Tips on Practical Management (Paperback): Bertrand Wong Technical Management In A Manufacturing Environment - With Important Tips on Practical Management (Paperback)
Bertrand Wong
R438 Discovery Miles 4 380 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Managing technical people seems to be another kind of "ball-game." Many technical people are proud of their expertise and would not like to be always told what to do, as though they do not know their stuffs. Moreover, technical knowledge is advancing so fast that the current technical knowledge could become obsolete within a short time. This book provides many important ideas for the aspiring technical manager. Much of the knowledge presented in the book is not available in textbooks and could only be gained by being on the job. To manage and solve technical problems in an industrial or factory environment, book knowledge or theoretical knowledge alone is insufficient, and, practical knowledge or experience is just as important, if not more important. As a matter of fact, some things cannot be learnt from books but must be "experienced" first-hand. This kind of knowledge is of great importance to the practising engineer or technical manager. In this book the author shares this kind of knowledge which he has gained first-hand by being "on-the-job" with the reader, knowledge which is unlikely to be found in a normal technical management book. There are also important tips on practical management. Students of management should benefit from the book too. The book includes an introduction by a successful businessman offering important views on business and management. This book has been given several rounds of publicity by the press.

How to Watch Movies and Television Shows For Free (Paperback): Annie Jean Brewer How to Watch Movies and Television Shows For Free (Paperback)
Annie Jean Brewer
R162 Discovery Miles 1 620 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Can You Afford Your Cable Bill?

When I left my abusive husband I had no job and no money.

I had to think fast.

I had three bored kids in a tiny home all screaming for entertainment.

I had to find a way to occupy those kids so that I could focus on getting a job. I also needed to distract myself as I struggled through a messy divorce.

Desperate for a solution I tried everything looking for an answer to the question:

"How do I watch television for free?"

We tried antennas but the signal stank.

We borrowed movies but the selection ran out.

We even tried renting but you have to have money for that.

Late one night I sat crying at my computer. What type of mother couldn't even afford cable for her kids?

That's when it hit me.

"Try the Internet."

I opened a browser and started searching. The web was still fairly new at the time but after some digging I hit paydirt.

Movies

I made a few mistakes, crashed my computer and infected that machine more times than I can count. I strived to learn from those early days, driven by the fact that my family could now

Watch television for FREE

Not only television but movies, webisodes, anime, documentaries, cartoons, trailers, tutorials and even more revealed themselves on my computer screen.

My kids became very happy after that.

I have crammed over a decade's worth of experience into this book. Within these pages you will find:

* How to prepare your computer system
* What software you need
* How to watch movies on your television
* A list of video websites
* Tips about registration
* Torrent and File Sharing Safety
* How to deal with pesky popups and ads
* How to view movies and shows
* How to find new video websites
* And more

The tips and websites within this book are the very same ones that my family uses today. We watch whatever we desire and outside of our monthly internet bill we don't pay a single penny.

Wherever you are with your finances, chances are that you struggle to pay your bills at times. I?ve been there and I would like to make your entertainment expense less of a burden on your family.

Purchase this book today.

"You can cancel your cable bill tomorrow."
