 This appears to be one of those things where the webcam can track movement on a pre-printed sheet based on some pre placed spots, Pop-sci did this with the article with the wind generators on the front, Ford and Chevy I believe have also done this at car shows, but when you hold it up to the webcam it recognizes it and as you shift the card the "3D image" will shift too
