You can do this right now, no waiting!

Free-viewing allows you to see stereo pairs of images in 3D without using glasses. Not everyone is able to free-view, which limits its commercial applications. But for those who can do it, it is often the favorite way to view 3D.

A common free-viewing technique called cross-viewing involves crossing the eyes and is the easiest for most people to master. Here's how you do it - try it out on the stereo pair above:

Start by viewing the image at a comfortable distance of about two feet.

• Step 1 - Cross your eyes softly until you see four images instead of two.
• Step 2 - Then relax your view so the images move together and you see only three images.
• Step 3 - When you see three images, stop changing your focus and you will see the center image in 3D.
• Step 4 Optional -- Raise your hands to the sides of your eyes to block out the two outer images so you see only the center one in 3D!

HINT: If you're having trouble, changing your distance from the screen by moving back a little sometimes makes it easier. Also take a break and try again later -- being relaxed gives better results.
