i3DSteroid360 vs Wide Stereo

Ricoh's Theta and others, spherical panorama cameras became readily available, and by using VR viewer everyone can enjoy full spherical stereoscopic images with immersive feeling. Unfortunately, even if you view same image on the left and right with the VR viewer, you will not get a stereoscopic effect. You need two equirectangular images shot at the same distance from the subjects, called "cha-cha shot" for decent stereoscopic effects. In case of twin spherical shots on THETA for 3D360 photo, special image processing is required for the geometrical alignment, which is different from regular non spherical 3D images such as; 1) No cropping allowed in the equirectangular images and the deformation have to be kept within the equirectangular shape. 2) Pseudo stereoscopic parts exist in parts of the equirectangular pair have to be swapped for decent stereo. This i3DSteroid360 APP is for 3D360 equirectangular alignment and VR viewing application. Ver1.60 - Fixed the application crash problem when image file is opened from the folder which have large number files. - Fixed the portrait image file orientation problem. - Improved the thumbnails view and the image scrolling performance.

This application lets you see the world in a way you never experienced before! By combining video from two nearby iPhones or iPads, the stereo base is increased by the factor of 10, 100 or even 1000, increasing your effective stereoscopic range by the same factor. This means that we can perceive depth when looking at very distant objects, like clouds or mountains. If your friend with the other iPhone is not around, you can still make stereoscopic photos the old way, by taking photos from 2 locations or by using the unique "Timeshift" mode where the second view is created continuously from your past camera images. Stereoscopic photos, also those coming from other apps or devices (like Fuji Finepix Real 3D or Nintendo 3DS) can be displayed as anaglyphs (red/cyan glasses required) or in the VR-goggles mode (where you put your phone in the box with lenses). Stereoscopic photos created in this app are recognised as 3D by some 3D-enabled tv sets, like Sony Bravia. File format is MPO - "Multiple Picture Object")
