In this episode, NYSCI Explainer David Meer takes us on a trip down memory lane to explain what 3D is, and the history of this cool technology.

Along with analyzing the science behind the dynamic visual sensation, David talks about the inception in the 1950s to its various evolutions throughout the years.

Come see science leap off the screen in our 3D theater, at New York Hall of Science!

Dolby 3D Digital Cinema brings realistic color and a sharp, clear image from every seat in our theater. With a 5.1 surround sound speaker system and a screen size of 22 by 12.6 feet, our selection of award-winning science films will transport you to locations around the world, including the base of America’s most spectacular canyon and the remote mountain peaks of Mexico. Our 3D schedule varies and includes award-winning, animated feature films, in addition to our educational offerings.

SCRIPT
INT. HALL OF SCIENCE’S THEATER - DAY
The Presenter is watching a 3D film in the front row, while eating popcorn. He notices the camera and puts his popcorn down.  


PRESENTER
Oh, hey! In the constantly evolving world of media, creators are always searching for the next big thing that can be used to entice people! Recently, it seems that the next big thing is 3D!
A large 3D title graphic envelops the screen.


PRESENTER (CONT’D)
From films to video games to theme park rides, 3D experiences seems to have taken a hold of the entertainment world and are steadily growing in popularity. But is 3D really all that new? It’s age may surprise you. Before we delve into innovations, let's first go over some fundamentals to understand all of it, starting with stereoscopic vision.


Throughout the film’s visual cues (Pictures & Video) will be used to convey the message.


PRESENTER (CONT’D)
Now unlike the mythical cyclopes, humans have two eyes, yet we see one image. What happens is... each eye sees the same image from two different overlapping perspectives. These two images are sent to your brain which processes the information as one combined image. This process gives us a sense of three dimensional depth which allows us to perform simple tasks. For example, knowing how far away a train is as it comes into the station is a good example of how our eyes work together to perceive depth in the world. Sucks for you cyclops face!


The Presenter points over to a cyclops who is having difficulty using 3D glasses and throws them to the ground and leaves in frustration.


PRESENTER (CONT’D)
Now let's travel back in time to
1838, when an inventor by the name of Sir Charles Wheatstone, using the already known principles of stereoscopic vision, created a device known as the Stereoscope. The first implementation of 3D using the stereoscope wasn't as sleek as we know it today.


There is suddenly a dining table in the theater at which the Presenter sits down and continues talking to the audience. The dining table has a small box in the middle.



PRESENTER (CONT’D)
About the size of your dining table, two mirrors were set at the center of a table at different angles, the mirrors would reflect  two pictures of the same subject from slightly different overlapping perspectives. Taken from the principles of stereoscopic vision, while viewing the optics in front of the mirror, a 3D image would take shape. This spectacle was very popular for its time and different inventors would continue to improve upon this new technology.    


The presenter opens a small box reviling a pair of anaglyph 3D glasses (the red and blue lens).


PRESENTER (CONT’D)
Well, aren't these an old favorite.  
The Presenter puts on the 3D glasses.
