What kind of glasses do I need to view these images?

Most modes require standard red-cyan paper or plastic 3D glasses, though other modes like Amber-Blue are supported for specific hardware.

How does the tool determine depth from a flat image?

It uses depth calculation methods based on brightness, saturation, or hue to estimate which parts of the image should appear closer to the viewer.

Can I use this for professional printing?

Yes, you can export in lossless PNG or TIFF formats to maintain high quality for print applications.

What does the Depth Offset setting do?

It controls the horizontal distance between the color channels; higher values create a more pronounced 3D effect but may cause eye strain if set too high.

Does it work with black and white photos?

Yes, you can use the Grayscale Depth mode or apply standard anaglyph filters to monochromatic images to create depth.
