What Is Stereoscopic Imaging?

TechDogs Avatar

It's all about the eyes, people. There are two kinds of people in the world of stereoscopic imaging: those who can see 3D and those who can't. The people who can't see 3D are just like normal humans—they don't have a superpower (yet). They can walk around, talk to their friends, and laugh at funny jokes about cats… but they never know what it feels like to see images with depth and depth alone. Those who can see 3D are so lucky! Stereoscopic imaging is making two slightly different images of something and viewing them through special glasses to create a 3D effect. The most common example of stereoscopic imaging is 3D movies, which use anaglyphic stereoscopy. It works by blocking one eye from seeing the red filter and one look from seeing the green filter. Your brain then processes these two images, and because of how our eyes focus, the object in the image will appear in 3D. Anaglyphic stereoscopy blocks out one eye, it's not the most comfortable way to view 3D, but it is the cheapest option. Stereoscopic imaging has many applications, including medical imaging and geology. They get to experience everything in life with a new level of depth. They'll never have to worry about whether or not they have enough money in the bank because they already know precisely how much they have left, and they can even tell you what time it is without looking at their phone! They will always be on time for everything because they already know where they're going and how long it will take them. If someone asks them what time it is? All they need to do is look at their wristwatch! Did we mention that these people also get to watch movies on multiple screens? You heard us right: numerous screens in one sitting! It's like a dream come true!
