Stereoscopic,
or 3D photography, works because it is able to
|
|
|
recreate the
illusion of depth. Human eyes are set some
|
|
|
distance
apart, so each eye sees an image slightly differently.
|
|
If one takes
two separate photographs that same distance
|
|
|
apart, with a
suitable viewer it is possible to recreate that
|
|
|
illusion of depth.

Binocular
drawings were made by Giovanni Battista della
|
|
|
Porta
(1538-1615), which clearly indicated his understanding
|
|
|
of binocular
vision.

In 1613 the
Jesuit Francois d'Aguillion (1567-1617), in his
|
|
|
treatise,
coined the word "stereoscopique"
