Significant Increase in Image Quality in Widely used 3-D Technique

Research conducted at Curtin University in Perth has enabled significant increases in image quality in a widely used 3D printing technique that is more than 100 years old. Anaglyph printing — think of the red-and-blue 3D glasses used to transform 2D images to 3D images in comics, magazines, books, and newspapers — came into being
