How to View These Images

These are stereo pairs designed for parallel free-viewing. Here's how to view them:

1. Position yourself centrally in front of the image pair on your screen.
2. Relax your eyes and look "through" the screen, as if focusing on something far behind it.
3. You should initially see the two images double into four images.
4. Try to gently converge the middle two images until they overlap perfectly, forming a third, central image in 3D.
5. Hold that focus. It might take practice! The diagram below illustrates the eye paths.

Tips:

• Try adjusting your distance from the screen for optimal viewing.
• Start with smaller images if you're new to this technique.
• Ensure the image pair is level horizontally.
• Important: The distance between the centers of the left and right images should ideally be no more than your eye separation (around 6-7 cm). If the pair looks too wide, zoom out in your browser (Ctrl/Cmd + Minus) to reduce the size.

Other Viewing Methods

• Cross-viewing: If the left/right images were swapped, you would cross your eyes slightly. These images are not set up for cross-viewing.
• Stereo Viewers: Devices like Google Cardboard, OWL Viewers, or Holmes-style viewers can be used if the images are properly formatted for them.
