Stereoscopic photography means using 2 nearly identical photos (with a small change of the angle of the photo). The photos are laid in an overlapping manner, so that each eye gets a slightly different image and the brain uses this to construct a three dimensional photo, just like it does all the time with the world around us. By flickering these images, we get a real sense of three dimensional space. The brain, of course, is much better and much faster at doing this. Enjoy this demonstration of stereoscopic images, that seem to leap off the screen! |
