Claims
- 1. A picture apparatus, comprising:
- a planar image substrate comprising a reflection print;
- a depth image substrate including a depth image comprising a lenticular substrate and a transparency, and positioned adjacent to and surrounding said planar image substrate as a frame;
- a light box attached to said transparency and projecting light through said transparency; and
- a reflective surface reflecting light from said light box onto said print.
- 2. An apparatus as recited in claim 1, wherein scenic image elements of the depth image comprise one of an actual scene or a graphical scene.
- 3. A picture apparatus, comprising:
- a planar image substrate;
- a frame attached to and surrounding said planar image substrate, said frame comprising:
- an inner bezel attached to and surrounding the planar image substrate;
- a lenticular depth image substrate including a lenticular faceplate and an image transparency on a rear of said faceplate, including planar perspective dependent scenic image elements, and positioned adjacent to and surrounding said inner bezel; and
- an outer bezel attached to and surrounding said depth image substrate; and
- a light box attached to said outer bezel and projecting light through said depth image transparency.
- 4. A picture apparatus, comprising:
- a planar image substrate comprising a reflection print;
- a frame attached to and surrounding said planar image substrate, said frame comprising:
- an inner bezel attached to and surrounding the planar image substrate;
- a lenticular depth image substrate including a depth image transparency and positioned adjacent to and surrounding said inner bezel; and
- an outer bezel attached to and surrounding said depth image substrate;
- a light box attached to said outer bezel and projecting light through said depth image transparency and
- a reflective surface attached to said inner bezel and to said depth image substrate and reflecting light from said light box onto said print.
- 5. An apparatus as recited in claim 4, wherein scenic image elements of the depth image comprise one of an actual scene or a graphical scene.
- 6. An apparatus for displaying, comprising:
- an object being displayed; and
- a depth image frame including a depth image having a lenticular faceplate with planar perspective dependent scenic image elements on a rear of said faceplate and positioned associated with and surrounding said object;
- the apparatus further comprising a background depth image positioned behind the object as a backdrop.
- 7. An apparatus as recited in claim 6, further comprising a light box attached to said frame and surrounding the object and said background depth image.
