Excerpts from the animation (without stereoscopic effect):
In the actual experience, viewers are in full control of the stereoscopic content: By turning a wheel they can move forward or backward in time - at their own chosen tempo. They can stop at any moment to take a closer look and read the inscriptions - or just rush through 300 Millions of years in a few seconds...
Excerpt 1: formation of the Alps and part of the last glacial cycle.
Excerpt 2: anthropocene, historic city growth and a possible future in geological time scale.
Glaciers and city growth with stereoscopic effect
The following clip is a red-cyan single image stereoscopic rendering example. With a pair of red-cyan glasses the 3d effect comes to life. The final Version was rendered in a 4K side by side setting. At the Museum a special viewer separates the images for left and right eye and allows an experience in true colors.
to experience stereoscopic 3d, use a pair of red-cyan glasses
