High Definition 3D Camcorder
I mounted two high definition camcorders on a rigid aluminum plate. After processing recorded footage and playing it back while looking through LCD shutter glasses, the result is "amazingly" realistic 3D video. It's like looking through a window into the live scene itself. You have to see it to believe it.
