As both 3D and iPhone fans you can imagine how excited we were to hear that there was a stereo 3D application for the iPhone. That was until we actually used it! Sure it works (sort of) but with all the recent advances in 3D technology this old method seems a tad lame. I won’t waste your time explaining how it works, the image below says it all..

..and just when you thought this whole thing couldn’t get any more low tech, the instructables.com comes out with this DIY apparatus to make it easier to view the iPhone app. This makes normal 3D glasses look like Gucci frames..

If you really, really want all the details (app address, instructables url etc):

Here is the home page for the iPhone / iPod app:

And here is direct link to download on iTunes:
Steremaker – iPhone app on App Store

Plus here is the instructables link (don’t do it.. nooo)
