Abstract
A method and apparatus for viewing two dimensional images with a three dimensional effect utilizes a stack of closely spaced, thin plates, producing a multiple interferometer effect via inter and intra plate reflections between the plates. A conventional two dimensional image, such as a print or a back-lighted transparency or a video screen may be viewed through the stack of plates, so as to give an appearance and attributes of three dimensions, via the multiple interferometer effect. In a second embodiment, dedicated images may be produced by photographing or videotaping or otherwise recording images through the stack of plates. When such a dedicated image is later viewed through the stack of plates, a further enhanced three dimensional effect is observed. In preferred embodiments the stack of plates include about 10 to 100 thin plates, in closely and evenly spaced relationship.
