I think
I will have take out today! |
| Fig 1 represents what your depth
perception might be like with a puny three inch separation
between you eyes. The further away things are the poorer our depth
perception is. |
 |
| Now look at this set of pictures
in fig 2.
They represent T Rex's Eyes that were 30 inches apart. Which person do you think was
lunch for T
Rex and who was desert? Do you think such a wide separation was helpful to T Rex? If so why? Would it help T Rex if it knew exactly how far away it's prey was? Do you think saving energy might be a factor in being able to calculate how far away lunch was and how fast and far he would have to chase it? |

| Fig. 3 is pure fiction
but
spectacular. The original picture was real but I doctored it to make it
appear 3D and is it ever 3D! If you were a
giant T Rex and your eyes were light years apart a
galaxy may appear to look like this. A bit exaggerated I admit but I
claim the right of artistic license. The method used to make the
pictures 3D was invented by me. If you think you know how it was
done email me and if you are first with the right answer I
will
put your name or screen name in the winners blank below. And the
winner is!
