Ipad 3D Viewer

Ipad 3D Viewer
Why an Ipad 3D viewer?

• Ipad is portable, high enough resolution for high quality 3D
• The Loreo Pixie viewer works well, but most people don't like the rubber ear bands
• Commercial screen viewers work, but you have to hold them to your head or they are expensive
• This viewer is cheap enough to make and hand out to your friends as gifts
• This will also work on any computer screen
• You should be 2 feet back and have a 10 - 15 inch picture.

Ironically, you use 3d glasses to make a 3d viewer, but you don't use the 3d lenses.

Very nice As to getting pictures for the viewer , I purchased two identical digital cameras(used $30 each 5mp and made a tripod stand for the cameras setting the lens of the cameras 2.4 inches apart and now take stereo pictures with them. Just make sure the cameras both have the same settings .. You can make blue red pictures by placing gel in front of each lens then combining them in Photoshop or gimp.....
