A system, including apparatuses, software and methods, is disclosed for
capturing and delivering images as to which various interactive functions
are enabled for a user. The images introduced to the system can come from
any one of a variety of sources, including the scalable image-capturing
devices described in the specification. Each image is delivered to a user
in its own layer of software, which permits complex sets of images of
relatively high resolution to be delivered to users without any
appreciable delay associated with the delivery or the need for the user
to have additional software, such as a plug-in to receive images and
enable interactive functions with respect to the images. A viewer
perceives only one image layer at a given time, but the currently
viewable image layer can be changed rapidly, so that the user can
perceive the illusion of motion, including virtual rotation of an object
depicted in a set of images. Interactive images can be rendered on a
lenticular sheet assembly according to the invention, which allows a user
to perceive the illusion of motion by applying pressure to the lenticular
sheet assembly, such as with a finger.
