You mean "here" in the newsgroups? Wouldn't the wiki be a better place

Slightly off-topic, but is there a way to create new discs of your own?
I've always wanted to be able to do that...

Actually I don't know where to find "the" wiki, but I will find out.
By "these pages" I erroneously referred to the POV-Rays website, by which I am
accessing these newsgroups (http://povray.org/ resp. http://news.povray.org/).
Although I have been povving for years, I am not familiar with the customs here.
Feel free to inform me, TIA.
Of course I would be happy if stereo topics got more attention wherever deemed
adequate. Recently I learned about a very active stereo section in the fractals
scene (e.g. http://www.fractalforums.com/), although photographers seem to be
the vanguard, in quantity and level of discussion. It is time classical
raytracers catch up.

At one time there was a stereo camera available for these View-Master style pictures.
I'm sure
it either came with, or had available the device(s) to mount them properly. Of
course, this was
a LONG time ago and I'm sure it's no longer manufactured. Never had one myself but I
remember
seeing them. Perhaps you could find one on E-Bay?

View Master.... <sigh> yes, I remember the name now. If I remember
correctly, there was indeed a camera but you had to send the film (already
mounted?) to the company for processing. I never owned one though.

Hi, Forgeron,
I just took a first glance at your website. Although I didn't find stereo
images, I'm sure you are the kind of person to delve at the topic.
The wiki you mentioned is of course known to me, but I don't feel I should post
there. (Shyness is not my problem; I post to other wikis where I'm more of an
expert.) If you or anyone could start the topic there, I would be very pleased.
In the newsgroups, I think a group "stereo" should be founded, analogous to
"animation". "Stereo animation" will come later ...
@ViewMaster fans: Nostalgia is not open to arguments, but for much better a
stereo experience you have your computer. For instructions, go to stereo
photography forums (I don't know any in Dutch, but 3dforum.net in English and
stereoforum.org in German, or read the user help of Stereopteryx). Stereo
raytracing, I feel, still needs more discussion, although I do not claim to know
all existing resources. Many considerations are common to photographed and
computed stereoscopy anyway.
I'm looking forward to the "genuine 3D" resp. 4D era. (BTW: terminology should
be standardized, "3D" being currently used for stereo as well.)

why would a genuine, 1:1 representation of 3D reality be "4D" (except perhaps
for animation taking time into account)? It's a common misconception I see with
my co-workers: they say they'll skip 3D TVs and buy 4D when it comes. It's
mostly for the humor, I guess, but I'm pretty sure some really believe it's a
label for new tech: 4D, 5D etc exactly like mp3...

The universe being built up of 11D strings, I wait for the 11D TV set, for
the total experience :-)

Infinite dimensional Hilbert space featuring full correction of any Heisenberg
blur is going to come soon, rumors say. I think Google are on it, or was it
Warner Bros.?
4D = Stereo video, 4th dimension being time. In cases of computed images we
speak of stereo animation, you got it, nemesis. Nothing new in terms of
technology, but artistic creativity is still somewhat lagging behind.
