Pseudo-color Stereograms from the ESEM

Pseudo-color Stereograms
from the ESEM

Scanning electron microscopy traditionally produces two dimensional, grayscale images of the specimen at hand. While these images are often visually beautiful and highly detailed, the visual cues derived from the image can be enhanced by adding color and using stereo imaging techniques. This forum will present methods for obtaining stereograms (three dimensional images) from the ITG ESEM, and a simple method for rendering them in pseudo-color.

This forum was presented using Microsoft PowerPoint 2000. This page begins the HTML/XML version of the forum slides. A copy of the original presentation, in PowerPoint 2000 format, is available online though the AVI movie file must be downloaded separately from the presentation.
