The Tunnel: A Stereogram Animation

This one is more challenging to focus on than the other animations I have done. It has more depth, so you'll need to look farther into the distance to see this one. Also, as usual, it is easier to see this in the small player size rather than full screen.

This started out as just a depth test, but even though it's simple, I liked it so I decided to add in music and colors, and post it.

Never seen a stereogram before? The goal is to unfocus your eyes and look through the screen, until the repeating pattern merges and you see the 3D image.

Three tips that might help to look through the screen:

1) Try focusing on the wall behind and above your computer screen, then *keep your eyes focused at that distance* but move them down so that you are looking through the screen.

2) If you have a CRT monitor, try focusing on the reflections in the screen.

3) Start up close to the screen, unfocus your eyes so you're looking through the screen, and slowly back away.

at the beginning, it says "FOCUS...", then the tunnel goes, up, down, down, right, down, left, up, down, left, up, up, right, then says "THE END"

@jijbentgoed - The crosseye technique is where you focus your eyes closer like you're looking at your nose, and the parallel method is where you focus on something in the distance, like looking at something out your window. If the stereograms look normal (not like cut-outs) then you probably are already using the parallel viewing method. If you want to see some designed for crosseye viewing (to see if they look inverted), check out YouTube user xyoureyes. Thanks for the comments!

@ThePhantomChick what is the difference between both techiques because i use the crossed eye one 'i think so lol' and i can still see everythink fine like all other stereogram videos
