Stereoscopy: Making Flat Visuals Appear in 3D

The video explores the concept of stereoscopy, a technique for creating 3D illusions using binocular vision. It explains how our brain perceives depth by processing slightly different images from each eye. The video covers historical and modern methods of 3D viewing, including stereograms, Viewmaster, anaglyph, polarized methods, and holography. It also highlights the applications of stereoscopy in fields like medicine, education, and space exploration, with a focus on virtual reality (VR) as a practical application.
