The 3D Cone Takes Photos That Will Pop Off the Screen

— August 14, 2012 — Tech
While three dimensional pictures and videos may not be all that prevalent in everyday use yet, that doesn't mean people shouldn't be thinking of the future; that is exactly what they can do with the 3D Cone. It anticipates the future of photography by taking stereoscopic images that appear three dimensional to the naked eye. While there are not a lot of devices with the hardware to support such images, once there is, people will already have a slew of photos to enjoy thanks to the 3D Cone.

Conceived by New York-based Saturn3DDesign, the 3D Cone takes two quick pictures in succession from slightly different angles through the use of a specially positioned mirror. The 3D Cone is currently vying for funds on Kickstarter.

2. Future of Photography - The 3D Cone's ability to capture stereoscopic images hints at the direction photography may take in the future, offering new possibilities for artistic expression.
3. Advancements in Hardware - As devices with the required hardware to support stereoscopic imaging become more prevalent, there will be an increased demand for accessories like the 3D Cone.
Industry Implications

2. Consumer Electronics - The 3D Cone and similar devices have the potential to shape the consumer electronics industry by introducing new immersive experiences and driving adoption of stereoscopic technology.
3. Crowdfunding - Platforms like Kickstarter offer opportunities for innovative projects like the 3D Cone to secure funding and gain traction, revolutionizing the crowdfunding industry.
