This thread provoked me to wondering whether this masking technique or the 
lenticular prints technique could be wrapped around a cylinder to give a 360 
degree rotatable 3D stereoscopic image. I figure that it should be possible 
to adjust the print line spacing and interlacing to compensate for the 
distortion of wrapping it into a cylinder, but I've never seen anything but 
flat ones.

Anyone ever seen or tried anything like this?
