Ha, not everybody is succeeding in seeing the 3D image from the last post. So, here’s an update with some tips. And I’ve updated most of the pictures to be less stressing for the eyes.
A new one first (full size):
Look dizzy until you see four grey dots. Than you can try to look dizzy at other points, for example your own finger moving back and forth. You’ll notice that the distance between the dots will differ on where you focus. You have to focus until the two middle dots are one, they come together. So then you’d see only three dots. That is the right focus, focussing on the picture then would ‘make it 3D’.
Another way of seeing 3D here is to focus on your nose. Move your face in about 10cm of the screen and focus on your nose. Then slowly move back. There will be a moment at which the focuspoint on your nose is the same as the one needed to see this image in 3D.
It remains hard to explain something which has become second nature. I can see these images within a second now and I’ve noticed my eyes always correct me when I try to ‘destruct’ the 3D view. My eyes just start to focus until both middle images are one again :) But, when I was learning it, it costed me a full day.
