Asteroids! 3D Stereographic Simulation

iOS iPhone

Prepare to be amazed as you are immersed in an asteroid field simulation, in full 3D, in full color, with no glasses required. By popular request, Asteroids! has been added to our collection of 3D Stereographs. Experience the asteroids field by gazing deep into the display, and the holographic like 3D display will appear as a third image, like magic. Plasma cannons, explosions, and full texture mapped asteroids complete the simulation.

Try it with the new Hasbro my3D.

It's alive, someone put an asteroid field in my iPhone! - Meagan
Wow, how does this work? I didn't believe it until I tried it. - JJ

This Cross-Eyed stereographic animation is simply viewed by relaxing your eyes and focusing deep within the display, which will come to life in full 3D glory. Be mesmerized by the asteroids that lets you feel you actually in a ship in the asteroid field.

No glasses are required, the display happens to be a nice size to view these effects and you will be amazed. When viewed correctly, you will see three images, with the center one in stereographic, then just watch and enjoy.

A normal 3D view and a viewport view with top and side views are also available, just touch the Info button and select the mode.

Warning! The intense immersive animation feels so real you may feel dizzy or nauseous, Enjoy!

Hints from testers for viewing the 3D stereographic effects:

- Try putting the screen right next to your nose, and cross your eyes a little until you see one blurry display, then while retaining focus on that image, slowly move the display away until you reach about 12 inches. The optimal distance is dependent on you eyes and ability to focus. When correct, the center display should be clear.

- Another method is to hold the display about 12 inches from your eyes, and hold your hand or a card perpendicular to your display about half way between your eyes and the display. Move your aid closer or farther from the display until with each eye closed you only see one of the images. Then when both eyes are open, you should find it easier to focus within the display. Once you have focused on the display, you should be able to remove your hand.

- In general, you need to relax your eyes and focus within the display in order to see the effects.

- Last, some of the population has difficulty focusing on Stereographic targets, however most testers have been able to enjoy stereographic effects with practice.
