[photo-3d] Progress with Lenticulars

[hatfieldme@xxxxxxx]

I promised to keep everyone up on my progress to produce my own lenticulars. 
So far I have determined that in order to do this will require at least four 
pieces to the puzzle. 1st I will need an interlacing software or program, 
this I think I have. 2nd I need a source for the proper type of lenticular 
material, again I think I have this one in hand. 3rd I need some way to 
digitize the images so that I can run them through the aformentioned program, 
so far this is a log-jam that I will discuss further in a minute. 4th I will 
need to access/purchase a printer of sufficient resolution that it can 
cleanly produce 200 vertical lines per inch. This last one I'm researching 
but is on the back burner for now. My current dilemma is concerns step 3, 
digitizing the pictures. I took a roll with my Nimslo over the Christmas 
holidays, and yesterday dropped it off with my local photo shop. These people 
are very good and have been working with me and my non-standard photographic 
needs for some time now. They are using a Kodak CD system, the intent being 
was to see if the reader would scan the 1/2 frame images that the Nimslo 
produces. No luck. Then we tried scanning the images 2 at a time to try and 
satisfy the needs of the programming and hardware. Partial success here, we 
were able to scan most of the images, but when we tried to burn the CD the 
computer locked up hard! The techs are planning to call Kodak tomorrow, but 
in the absence of anything usful coming out of that phone call (I anticipate 
Kodak simply saying it cant be done) anyone out there have any insight as to 
what we might be able to do? I'm trying to avoid printing the images and then 
scanning them in with a flatbed because of the loss of resolution every time 
you go through another step. 
Just thought everyone would enjoy hearing about my progress. And I appreciate 
all of  you who have forwarded your helpful hints and suggestions. Happy 
healthy new year everyone!
