Percy Carte Ron Cole • 23 days ago see moreGenius. Now, how to view the stereo. 2 tubes side by side about the same size on screen of each asteroid but without magnification?
Ron Cole Percy Carte • 22 days ago see moreI can make one for you to do it that way but that one won't work for this one. What you're describing is a 'parallel view' where the two images are in the correct order (right on right - left on left). The one I posted above is a 'cross view' (left on right - right on left) so the viewer crosses their eyes until they see three image and focus on the one in the center because the one in the middle is an overlap of the two combined.
It's difficult for some people to learn to do that because it's such an unnatural way to look at something. I was really into 3D photography and movies a few years ago but I don't do it so much anymore, simply because so many people can't view it online.
Give me a few minutes and I'll make a parallel view pair so you can use two tubes. Be right back...
Chef Shawk Parson III Percy Carte • 23 days ago see moreduuno if the tube method may work or not but if you know how to move your head closer to the image and then use the crossed-eyes method it works perfectly well!
remember though: better click on this 'animation' to see it against a dark background ...
also, don't stay cross-eyed for longer than a few to several seconds as your eyes may stay that way forever! ;-)
Percy Carte Ron Cole • 22 days ago see moreDamn good!!!! It works!!! I simply viewed the image with my tablet. I held a bill envelope between the 2 images lengthwise so my eyes aren't too close which operates much like a stereoscpe without magnification. The eyes then adjust on each image and viola one image in 3d spinning. Now to create morph images in between to smooth the rotation.
Thank you for this!PC

Claudia Crowley Mod Jonathan Cresswell-Jones • 22 days ago see moreThat's quite a resource! Thank you, Jonathan.
McGann Saphir Jonathan Cresswell-Jones • 22 days ago see moreThanks, Jonathan. Great site!
Joe • 22 days ago see moreMaybe it's just me, but this rock that's been traveling through space for a very long time doesn't appear to have many pock holes indicating to me this is one tough rock, metallic, I would hope with something we could really use and something that would justify the cost of going there. I am judging this on the fact that the pictures were made at/from a distance of only 5o miles.
