Stereoscopy creates the impression of three-dimensional depth from a pair of two-dimensional images. [5] Human vision, including the perception of depth, is a complex process, which only begins with the acquisition of visual information taken in through the eyes; much processing ensues within the brain, as it strives to make sense of the raw information.
For crossed-eyed autostereograms, a different approach needs to be taken. The viewer may hold one finger between their eyes and move it slowly towards the picture, maintaining focus on the finger at all times, until they are correctly focused on the spot that will allow them to view the illusion.
There are two ways an autostereogram can be viewed: wall-eyed and cross-eyed. [a] Most autostereograms (including those in this article) are designed to be viewed in only one way, which is usually wall-eyed. Wall-eyed viewing requires that the two eyes adopt a relatively parallel angle, while cross-eyed viewing requires a relatively convergent ...
A stereo transparency viewer is a type of stereoscope that offers similar advantages, e.g. the View-Master. Disadvantages of stereo cards, slides or any other hard copy or print are that the two images are likely to receive differing wear, scratches and other decay. This results in stereo artifacts when the images are viewed.
The cross-eyed viewing method has its roots in aerial photography and aerial reconnaissance image interpretation. View of Boston, c. 1860; an early stereoscopic card for viewing a scene from nature, where actual stereoscopic image data is included.
Binocular rivalry is a phenomenon of visual perception in which perception alternates between different images presented to each eye. [1] An image demonstrating binocular rivalry. If one views the image with red-cyan 3D glasses, the text will alternate between red and blue. 3D red cyan glasses are recommended to view this image correctly.
To view the stereogram, use a stereoscope to present the left image to the left eye and the right image to the right eye or focus on a point behind the image to achieve the same thing. (How to achieve this wall-eyed position of the eyes is described in Autostereogram). The shifted region of random dots will appear as a small, central, square ...
Alternative terms for cyclopean eye include third central imaginary eye and binoculus. The term cyclopean stimuli refer to a form of visual stimuli that is defined by binocular disparity alone. It was named after the one-eyed Cyclops of Homer’s Odyssey. The term cyclopean in the terms of binocular disparity was coined by Bela Julesz. [4]
