A computer monitor does not have the capability to show an autostereoscopic multi-perspective
image for several reasons. First, it does not have enough resolution.
Second, there is no lens overlay available to bond to your monitor - even if
it did have enough resolution. Third, there is no software available to facilitate
viewing... etc. etc. There are ways to see two view stereoscopic images on the internet. There are shutter glasses and even a cost free method you can try by crossing your eyes. Sadly, these are little more than gimmicks. Like a Viewmaster it can be entertaining but in no way can it be representative of the experience of looking at a life size high dynamic range autostereoscopic multi-perspective Almont Green original. The video below does show some subtle perspective shifts as the picture is rocked back and forth. However, it is in no way representative of what you will see when you look at an Almont Green photograph in person. |

Unfortunately, it is impossible to view a life size autostereoscopic 3D photograph
on the internet. |
If you look closely at the video, you can see how perspectives shift as the frame
is rocked back and forth. When you view the 3D photographs in real life, 3D is
achieved by presenting a different perspective to each eye. This creates a very
effective illusion that your brain can assemble into a life size 3D image. To
add to the realism, Almont starts with high dynamic range 18 bit per color images
and outputs the images using an HDR giclee commercial printer modified to his
exacting standards. |
