Look at this thing:
The Only 3D Web Camera
It looks like some sort of robotic bug. In reality, it is a tiny, three-dimensional web camera. As with all 3D cameras, the two cameras are placed very close, side-by-side. This creates a stereoscopic image (an anaglyph) due to the slightly different positions of the lenses-which can focus as close as 12 inches away. Video is captured at 15 frames per second at a resolution of 800 x 600.
This little unit can also be set to record side-by-side videos or two-dimensional picture-in-picture videos. Or it can simply be used as a regular ol’ web cam.
To get the three-dimensional effect, the viewer must wear a pair of 3D cyan/red glasses. Five pairs are provided with the camera.
Here’s a great example of how video from this camera looks when played back on your PC.
