Abstract: A method and apparatus for the provision of stereoscopic three-dimensional images applicable in visual representations such as photographs, paintings, pictures and other patterns or diagrams on a surface which could be produced by other means; to kinematic images which might, for example, be employed in a cinema; to projected still images; to advertisements in these mediums; to book illustrations and decorations such, for example, as murals, and upholstered curtains. This invention provides a swopping over or reversal of positions of two stereoscopic images as compared to the presentation of stereoscopic images which has been heretofore employed. This presentation permits a viewer to see a three-dimensional image without any optical aids being necessary, merely by "squinting" the eyes slightly.
