The 3D camera is an imaging device comprised of two lenses. It replicates the same image as it is experienced via human binocular vision. The 3D camera captures three-dimensional images, enhancing the visuals’ overall quality. It enables photographers to capture images that create a depth illusion in 2D photographs, improving the visual appeal of the photograph. Moreover, a 3D camera is an imaging technology that allows depth awareness in images that mimic the three dimensions that human binocular vision experiences. Some 3D cameras utilize two or more lenses to capture numerous viewpoints, whilst others use a single lens that moves around.
