3D Stereo on YouTube

Friday, October 23, 2009

YouTube has a new experimental feature for displaying stereo 3d. I hauled out the Bee stereo turntable animation and cleaned it up for the two-channel stereo formatting. If you’d like more information about the stereo process, I used this somewhat-helpful thread as a guide when preparing the file.
Being able to produce the file once and use multiple 3d options is a huge plus, especially when over-compression can so easily destroy red/blue stereo. With this method, it doesn’t matter if you have
red/blue, red/cyan, or red/green. Or maybe you prefer looking at it cross-eyed. It all works, using the same source data.
