THE 3D SHOW

Tom Pitre, Sequim, WA

April, 2005 – Rev., February, 2009

PUT YOUR RED/CYAN 3D GLASSES ON.

THANK YOU.

Content

What you will see and what you will learn:

1. Examples of 3D Anaglyph images

2. The software used to make 3D images

3. How to make 3D images - from digital photos and from existing stereographic images

4. Sources for supplies and software.

What is an Anaglyph?

A stereoscopic picture consisting of two images of the same object, taken from slightly different angles, in two complementary colors.

When viewed through colored spectacles, the images merge to produce a stereoscopic sensation.

How the anaglyph glasses work

When you look through the red lens, only red light is allowed through. The eye that is covered with the red lens will see the red image. The cyan lens only allows blue light through, so the eye that is covered with the cyan lens will see the green image. Because the red and cyan images are slightly offset, each eye sees a slightly different view of the picture.

This disparity simulates the distance between our two eyes, which provides two views of the same scene, therefore providing us with the perception of depth.

There are a lot of published anaglyphs on line.

Use keyword “anaglyphs” in Google to find them.
