Visualizing effects : In stereoscopic images

Abstract: This thesis explores and includes research on different impressions given in stereo rendering when creating a fire in three different manners.As technology progresses, stereoscopic rendering becomes increasingly more popular. Both movies and games are shown through VR to give users a more satisfying and lifelike interaction with a virtual environment.Three different versions of a fire were created in a game engine and then viewed with HTC Vive. Comparing mono and stereo rendering gave insights on how the different method looks when using stereoscopic rendering, and what impression the different methods gave the user.The different fires were tested with several users. Finally, this thesis concludes with an interview to one of the users and his different impressions of the fires.
