#WorldStereoscopyDay is celebrated on June 21st. Today, #Stereoscopy is used in #Surgery, all forms of #Microscopy & in #Satellites to observe the Earth; & it is the fundamental tenet of modern #VirtualReality. Using the theories #CharlesWheatstone developed, we can extend stereoscopy from 2 to 100’s of images, building models & 3D worlds to view & explore. stereoscopyday.com
Using #Elata, a #3DScanner developed by #Aralia, the sculpture of #CharlesWheatstone has been captured & reconstructed in #3D. Leveraging the power of cloud-computing the ground-breaking #ElataScanner is a low-cost companion appliance for smartphones to record a combination of neural photogrammetry & photometric stereo with high levels of detail & accuracy. araliasystems.com

Sir #CharlesWheatstone concluded that the brain resolves the distance of objects using #BinocularVision & on the 21.06.1838 at the #RoyalSociety in London, he demonstrated an instrument he designed to prove his theory. The #Stereoscope was immensely popular in the 19th & early 20th CE, & was widely used for entertainment, in education & as an enthralling substitute to travel.
#CharlesWheatstone is famously known for the #WheatstoneBridge, a diamond-shaped electrical circuit that is the gold standard technique for precision electrical measurement. Invented in 1833 by #SamuelHunterChristie for another purpose, Wheatstone proposed Christie's invention in a paper to measure electrical resistance & in 1843, the device picked up the Wheatstone name.
