Re: A problem with "analog" lenticular 3d-stereo printing

Lenticular sheets are of several types and for several applications. The 3D ones are designed so that images can be viewed from a shorter or longer distance, and have larger or smaller angles at which images can be viewed, which must be more than two.
Many fractions of images can be placed under a single cylindrical lens, not just two, in which case the unused space beyond two images remains white, and is reserved for the rest of the images, which are missing.

All the specifications of the lenticular sheet must be known, not just the lenses density (lpi) to calculate what to do.

...................................

In your particular case, respecting the projection distance, you can insert 5 images under the respective lenticular sheet.
You can photograph a subject from 5 different positions at equal distances from each other and then project them onto the sheet on all 5, at the interval chosen for the two used now.

In this case there will be no need for a fixed point from which 3D image can be seen.
