About

Wide Stereo

Features
Read full description

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")
