3D stereogram - test 3


3D stereogram - test 3 by Kim Dench.
The third test with 3D stereograms - first test out of the studio. For location, I picked the wonderful Edo Japan region, for the beautiful builds and the cool walk way givning the depth effect.

The cool thing about these images is that they look even *more* real than what we usually see in SL. Sure, we get some feeling for the 3D environment as we move around, but we actually only see a 2D image. With images like these, we actually get to see SL in 3D for real.

Instructions for Crosseye Stereograms:

1) Sit about half a meter (half a yard) from the screen.

2) Go crosseyed, so you see four images, instead of two.

3) Adust the degree of crosseyedness until the two middle images (the left of the right pair and the right of the left pair) merge, so that you see only three images.

4) Hold that position and try to get the middle image into focus. When you succeed you suddenly have a clear 3D image.

5) If your eyes get tired, take a break.

It is difficult to do this the first time, but once you have succeeded it gets a lot easier from then on.
