tpe 0 Posted November 2, 2008 You should be able to see a 3d scorpion here, but it is a bit difficult seeing them and not everyone can. the two pictures are supposed to represent the image that each eye would see when looking at the subject. To see it in 3d you have to superimpose one image ontop of the other by going a little crosseyed. your brain does the rest. It can be quite effective. Try being directly infront of the screen, perhaps a little nearer than you usually get. Then go a little crosseyed. you end up seeing three images, the center image is the left hand image in the right eye superimposed on the right hand image in the left eye. If you then concentrate on the center image you should quite clearly see it as 3d and in this case it makes it clearer which legs are infront of what etc. I think it was the victorians that started it with some novelty cards, but it is actually usefull for mathmatitians for plots and biologists and chemists looking at molecule representations etc. Link to comment
