What is Lenticular?
Very simply, lenticular refers to a sheet of plastic lens (that can come in different sizes and thickness) consisting of an array of optical elements called lenticules that create a convex perspective of multiple images. This technology is used to create a lenticular image.
A lenticular is a combination of a special lens and an arrayed image that simulates animation or depth.
How it works?
Step 1
Lenticular interlacing process.
The images are divided into strips and interlaced into a single image.
Step 2
Lenticular plastic over interlaced image.
The interlaced image is printed directly on the back of a lenticular plastic or printed on a stable paper support and then laminated with the plastic.
Step 3
Operation of the plastic.
The lens isolates and amplifies the interlaced image underneath it in such a way that only one original image at a time can be seen. The image changes as it is viewed, depending on the angle of observation.
If the lens array is placed vertically, each eye sees a different image and creates the illusion of a 3D image.
