William Alder 1935, brief article in Popular Mechanics

<http://books.google.com/books?id=td4DAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA92&dq=Popular+Mechanics&lr=&as_brr=0&as_pt=MAGAZINES&source=gbs_toc_r&cad=1#v=onepage&q&f=false>


Anyone have any more documentation on this idea and process? Judging
from the article, it seems like he may have been doing alternate
frames with a very slight lateral displacement, not enough to be
obvious, but enough to cue the brain into seeing a form of 3D. There
is a gif animation style that does this. Sorry not to have a good
example.

Just reposted for the link so that in case you wanted to include a
mention on your website about this and other competing "3-D" systems

Forgot how to bring back the entire thread. Sorry
