StereoCam lets you create 3D photos
by mobile, without PC editing. Just
create first photo, change position
and create another one viewing
preview in live mode - then you may
edit them in fullscreen for best view
by 3D glasses, or without any if you
can see stereo pairs (see app's Help).
The only display resolution now is
240x320.
There is an anaglyph 3D-interface for
main menu, submenus ant so on. After
first launch application creates folder
StereoCam on the root of memory
card (or phone itself if it's absent). All
the data, photos and 3D-images will be
saved only in it. Choose "Camera" on
main menu, you'll see list of capture
modes.
If you need, for example, landscape
photo just choose #5 "Anaglyph -
Landscape" (you may change caption -
in future versions it's possible to
create new modes). For speeding
working up you may choose mode
number on phone keyboard, and this
feature supported on any list-screen
in programm.
The working screen will open and you
see two rectangles. Viewfinder
appears in left one and first snap can
be done. After that you see the
preview of photo inside of first
rectangle and viewfinder appears in
second one, and you may in live mode
choose pair view which is very handy.
After that you may see resulting
image in fullscreen. If it's Ok - just
save it. If no - edit it by moving right
photo up-down or left-right and save
or cancel.
After saving the working screen
appears again and you can make
another 3D-image - in the first
rectangle remains first photo and you
may improve second one in another
rectangle. For comparing aims there
is history of made images during one
session, you may see it below and
scroll them.
So, that is full cycle of making 3Ds.
There are some other modes of photo
session, they distinguish not much
from described process. To rename
theese modes just go to "Modes" from
main screen
You may view your album by choosing
"Photos" on main menu. All the images
begin from 'S', then one of symbols 'A',
'C' or 'P' that means anaglyph, cross or
parallel. And then symbol of
orientation - 'L' or 'P'. After that
unique image number comes and then
number of photos inside of the same
session. And it's finished by BMP (now
images can be saved only in that
format). For example:
SPP_00442_001.bmp,
SPP_00442_002.bmp,
In "Settings" menu you may set camera
working mode: it can be always ready
for capture and therefore launches
quickly between sessions (but spend
you battery), or after finishing photo
session it's deactivated and starts
before another one which is cost on
time (but saves the battery)
