Tallest Volcano Plume Ever Recorded Was Measured by Stereo Photography
An undersea volcanic eruption that produced the tallest plume ever recorded was measured using the centuries-old stereo photography technique.
Stereogranimator: Create Your Own 3D Photos Using Vintage Stereographs
The New York Public Library has a massive collection of over 40,000 vintage stereographs (two photos taken from slightly different points of view). To properly share them with the world in 3D, the library has launched a new tool called the Stereogranimator. It lets you convert an old stereograph into either an animated 3D GIF (which uses "wiggle stereoscopy") or an anaglyph (the kind that requires special glasses).

Wiggle Stereoscopy 3D Video of Yo-Yo Tricks by Doctor Popular
Super nerd Doctor Popular recently did a wiggle stereoscopy experiment using two Flip video cameras and $10 in nuts and bolts, filming himself doing yo-yo tricks at AT&T Park in San Francisco. Wiggle stereoscopy is when images from two slightly offset points of view are quickly alternated, resulting in a 3D effect that does not require special glasses to view. A few months ago we shared the world's first music video that utilized the technique.
First 3D Camera-Shift Music Video
This music video for the song "Doubtful Comforts" by Blue Roses is the first music video to employ wiggle stereoscopy to create a 3D effect that does not require special glasses to view.
