In Cambridge???

Bussing them in?

(A certain 24 year old will no doubt thump the living daylights out of me for saying that...)

Ah, exclusive eh? Don't want anyone getting in. I know the score - drink all the bubbly y'self eh???

I could bring him, although without copious amounts of serious Class A drugs, I'll be in bed by midnight I'm afraid.

Crumbs, things were never that decadent at Oxford :-(

I do feel somewhat honorbound, being a good mate of Tim's, a chum, 101 buddy an all, to go help him in this... Tim? (I can beg, you know?).

PLEASE?

You might not make 'em work with only one eye. Took 2 to take 'em, they're one through each eye... Surprising how much difference there is. and some daft git said once that binocular vision is only relevant for depth perception up to about 6 ft, which I reckon is bollox.

spoilsport.

I've dabbled a bit -- two slides in sequence, shifting balance from one foot to the other. That can give a wider spacing, and exaggerate the depth, while making it visible at a greater distance. But what I also found was that _edges_ showed at a distance, and you could end up with an impression of flat cardboard cut-outs.

Ah..good idea ;-)

all I did was to take a picture, note where the framing was lined up with the world, and then shift the camera to the other eye and attempt to take the same picture.

If you can get the 2 images to coalesce (I can do it much easier cross-eyed) then they do produce a freaky 3-d effect.

Depth perception is just that; perception. You do not see anything in

3D, nor do you have binocular vision. You see two independent, upside down images. Your brain will then interpret these two independent, upside down images into something you can use, which is (generally, although not always) 3D :-)
