Stereogram images

I wonder, though, if the other images that are being seen (the two balls, multiple curved lines below) are the images that MAKE it 3D? I mean, from the way stereograms are built up~so that we see it 3D? -Theresa 12:58, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Good question, Theresa. I was able to make out the 2 balls and mulitiple lines version after reading about it, but I've never heard of Magic Eye pics that have two pictures in them! --Milowent 13:27, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

I've never seen two images in a Magic Eye one either, but *shrug*. Stereo does mean "two" and wiki says: "By looking at a horizontally repeating pattern, but converging the two eyes at a point behind the pattern, it is possible to trick the brain into matching one element of the pattern, as seen by the left eye, with another (similar looking) element, beside the first, as seen by the right eye." So there are at least two similar looking elements in the 3D HoO image we're seeing, that would explain the two circles. I'm not sure about the three "swooshes" though. But! I don't think there's more to the image than the HoO symbol, though. So the note seems... unnecessary. - Theresa 13:44, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Actually, from what I understand, any stereogram can be seen this way. By looking "deeper" into the picture, you can see multiple images of the same thing. It has something to do with the way stereograms work, but I'm not an expert on that unfortunately. Also, it's easier to see the multiple images with some stereograms than it is with others. On this one, I can see up to four duplications, at which point the picture doesn't look much like the HoO symbol anymore. The dot in the middle starts to overlap with the curve and a weird effect is produced. As an aside, I wonder if it's possible to design a stereogram so that only the 4th order viewing, for example, contains the secret message.--Jonpro 13:46, 8 October 2007 (CDT)
