3d glasses anyone

Did some more experimenting with this method..Is there a need for a second version of Anaglyph Patterns part 2..Heres one of the images so far..

Well since you mentioned it
I was thinking of how I can use it to blend all the layers into one for Anaglyph Images.
Either one or two controls for the blending of the layers..Maybe using the levels or the contrast of the pict to control the amount of the pict that can be seen on the different layers..Kinda scratching the head on this for a couple of days now..I did manage to do something with the above filter thou..its called Painted Anaglyph Glass.
It does look better with the glasses on. You get the whole Glass illusion..
Those without glasses it looks cool without them also..

One more

Try this image, it does not pop out as much as I would like but the concept is still there.

ok, i looked at the streetlight and lifepreserver again last night under different local lighting conditions. the streetlight has more depth than i originally thought, but there's something distracting going on in the background; something about the reds over that light blue background that hurts the eyes, but it does have more depth than i originally thought.

the lifepreserver seems to only have a tiny bit of depth in the reds. the rest seems rather flat. and on this last one, the colors against black seem to give the best results.

and here's a little food for thought, with the glasses on and i look at the smilies listed right above this reply, next to 'quote', the greens and reds actually seem to have a touch of depth

frankly, i find it remarkable that you've gotten what you've gotten. that chessboard and angel were pretty remarkable. those are the two that stick in my mind the best for depth.

Whats also kinda interesting is edit or create a filter with a lot of colrful gradients..But have the glasses on while editing..It really hurts the eyes..

I am also surprised I have gotten this far with these. The whole series was kinda a sidetracked project..But you know how that goes

I printed out the angel and have it hanging up...Just a tiny print nothing to huge..
I thought it came out looking like it had real depth also..

Yay, more 3-D I tried to grab it just now, but the server is down for maintenance, probably just as well, it's 1am, and my eyes already = tired, I'll grab it tomorrow. I dunno how you can stand to make those, you must have eyes of steel ha-ha

That one has a little bit of depth nothing to deep..But that filter did get posted.

i decided to make sure we were on the same page; so, i looked up 'anaglyph' in a google define. here's a pretty simple explanation of it:

Quote
A stereoscopic picture consisting of two images of the same object, taken from slightly different angles, in two complementary colors. When viewed through colored spectacles, the images merge to produce a stereoscopic sensation. homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/rbf/GRDICT/grdict.htm

so, i'm guessing what you may be missing in your pieces is the 'taken from slightly different angles' part. but, that's just a guess, since i dont know what source image or images you're using.

could you do what you're trying to do in filter forge without two source images being in FF at the same time?

notice in that last one 'on a black field'

Well, take a look at this one and test it out..It works great on most images. But it doesn't work so good on images with to much contrast....
But the pict below is straight from the new filter. Ran though only once..Theres not
many controls either


This pict is from StockXChange

I think this is only part of the way..I think if I take the above filter and combine with maybe a copy or two of itself and then mask out certain parts it might work..
This is one more thing to love about FF..Experiment with something one might not have otherwise touched...

CF, the statue one is pretty good. not nearly as much of that blue and especially, red 'drive your eyes nuts' look in it.

i'm curious here, i assume you're doing these on a single image rather than the stereographic, two image approach. what would happen if you did use two stereographic images?

ok, that one moves.

are you offsetting your multiple images (or layers) when you do multiples?

Wait a minute I think I found the height map clue that Richard was looking for on the first page...So this is only the beginning again for this...Try to run your mouse under the pict..

Then one more. Some creepy pict I did a while back...

oops, i was still on page 3. i was talking about the last statue one.

How about Halographic Donna..

The creepy one if you click to veiw and stare at the eye for a minute it
almost looks like a halographic projection from the transparency..

CF,

the donna one just doesnt work on my rig and my glasses. it may be that we have slightly different colored glasses or our monitors may be calibrated slightly differently. i get no 'pop' on it at all. what i get is two images, offset, but no real depth. the one that pops for me like you're saying the donna one does, is the statue. that one is CLEARLY popping out of the picture by a few inches on my rig, with my glasses. i mean, it's theatre quality 3d.

and that raises a very interesting question. if you're seeing the pop on one image and i'm not, but i'm seeing it on a different one, then what are others going to see with different calibrations, glasses and so on? we may need a larger sampling audience to really tweak this.

donna,

you can make your own glasses. just go to a crafts store or any place that might sell colored plastic. often, craft stores already know the right colors as they get these requests from time to time. you need a red one, like the red on the left side of the donna pic and a blue-ish green one, like on the right side, only a bit darker. the red goes over the left eye and the blue-green over the right.

you can also find 3d video/dvd's at wal-mart or some place like that and there'll be a number of glasses in there.

I know, I know I keep saying this but one more pict here..Unless I'm really done
