2Dto3D RedBlue Converter is a system for converting usual photos to volumetric (stereo) images, that can be viewed by means of red - blue or red - green glasses (or by means of some other device that allow examining images by left and right eyes separately). The program is intended for fast creation of realistic stereo versions of the images making unnecessary shooting from two close points. In spite of the fact that any photograph is only a flat projection, it nevertheless contains some information about 3D structure of the object. So, the object can be reconstructed. Certainly, the result differs from a traditional stereo image obtained by shooting from two points, but human brains work with less than mathematical accuracy, and can take pleasure of a beautiful illusion.

The program works as follows:

You load a graphic file, convert it (all is done quite simply by pressing a single button) and receive three new figures: the red - blue color picture (it is, actually, the result and is to be looked through red - blue glasses <see Fig.1>) and two full-color images - for left and right eyes - as though object is taken off by shooting from two different points. All pictures open in separate windows of the built-in graphic editor. You can change brightness, contrast, sharpness of the images and save files (for the registered users only) in various formats.
