"While film studios are cashing
in on 3D films, many are 'faking it' by converting 2D movies
into 3D post-production. Worse, they're not upfront in their
advertising, and many people feel ripped off after paying
extra fees for the '3D Experience.'" - Philip Dhingra
(realorfake3d)
When shooting a real 3-dimensional movie, two camera lenses are
paired to
capture views of the same scene from slightly
different angles (positioned about six and a half centimeters apart). The difference in viewpoint between the left and right
lens is known as parallax. BinaryVision
brain wave-patterned algorithms
merge the left and right views of two paired
inputs to render 3D videos that can be watched without
special glasses (autostereoscopy).
BinaryVision software can also convert between conventional 3D video framepacks. It supports industry-standard display protocols including side-by-side, half-width, anaglyph and more.

The first 3D viewing devices or Stereoscopes were made in the 1800s by Sir Charles Wheatstone and David Brewster. The View-Master toy evolved in the 1950s and 60s. The Google Cardboard viewer stirred interest in Virtual Reality (VR) applications.
Stereographs (also known as wigglegrams, piku-piku, wiggle 3-D, wobble 3-D,
and
wiggle stereoscopy) are still images that simulate a 3D effect by displaying two views
of a scene for the left and right eyes. Wigglegrams
are left and right single image pairs alternating in a short
animated loop:
BinaryVision extends 3D filmmaking with innovative GPU-accelerated
3rdEyeVideos (also known as
wigglevids) based on brain wave frequencies. By intermixing input streams, its algorithms can render
full motion videos
rather than still images:

"Stereographs on Steroids"
A global social network holds the keys to a so-called immersive metaverse. Each user in that augmented world is required to put on cramped virtual reality headsets or awkward 3D glasses. Hour upon hour (day after day), in the classroom and in the workplace.
How long can you wear a head-mounted gadget on your face?
BinaryVision is based on brain wave autostereoscopy and doesn't require head-mounted viewing devices. Its full motion 3D videos (or 3rdEyeVideos) may be displayed on existing monitors, smartphones, TV sets, and moving picture screens. Unlike with 3D headsets, wigglevids are not experienced simultaneously by both eyes, but sequentially by the brain. It therefore takes a few moments of scrutiny before left eye and right eye visual information may converge into a real 3D view. Instead of a pop-out effect, 3rdEyeVideos sink in.
As an added benefit, users blind in one eye may also observe exciting stereoscopic video scenes because 3rdEyeVideo frames are interfused in a 3D sequence before the mind stores the information. BinaryVision brain wave frequency applications open new opportunities in telemetry science.

Along with lens focus, real 3D videos also have a stereopsis anchor point.  The 3D
convergence area (stereopsis, or stereoscopic sweet spot) is usually
within the two-lens overlapping field of focus. An intersecting ellipse
(vesica piscis) allocates binocular vision (%) and appears three-dimensional with little or no rocking effect or wobble inside the
convergence region (the subject's face in this example).

BinaryVision software requires two video input
sources or a 3D framepack to generate a 3rdEyeVideo :
(Left view and Right view, or a conventional 3D Framepack: side-by-side, top/bottom, etc.)
The alternating left and right visual field (fusion frequency)
of a 3rdEyeVideo is calculated in cycles per second, or Hertz
(Hz) :
BinaryVision algorithms automatically simulate
brain-wave frequencies to mimic a wide range of mind states.
To intensify or subdue a 3D experience,
the wiggle or rocking effect can vary from hard to soft for
each video scene :

Why wasn't the metaverse populated as intended?
Because most users couldn't create their own 3D content.
Existing stereoscopic video editing systems were too costly or far too difficult to master.
The metaverse diminished into a 3D brochure for big corporations with hardly any user content.

Procedure #1.
Use authorized platforms to download 3D framepacks. Frame
Packing refers to the
combination of two frames, one for
the left eye and the other for the right eye, into a single
packed frame. With frame packing using the Side-by-Side 3D
method, each sub-frame maintains full resolution. With the
Top-and-Bottom 3D frame packing method, sub-frames are
stacked vertically. The Anaglyph format requires red-cyan
glasses.
3D-enabled TVs, VR headsets, and home theater
systems have grown in popularity.

Procedure #2.
Shoot your own 3D movies. Budget action cams are now considerably low in price and
even youngsters can create wigglevids with BinaryVision.
To render a
3rdEyeVideo from 2 inputs,
simply trim your left-right start times (and optionally set a 3D anchor
point) :
BinaryVision is not only about making 3rdEyeVideos.
It's a feature-rich stereoscopic conversion engine with filters and effects.
Simplify the task of making 3D video framepacks and optimized anaglyphs.
