Cuttlefish in 3D glasses watching a video of a shrimp. It's not something you've likely ever seen in your neighborhood pet store, but scientists at the University of Minnesota dared to try it.

“Stereopsis was once thought to be a human ability that even other mammals couldn’t do,” says Read. “Having an insect outperform our undergraduates on it was quite fun. ...

Stereopsis comes so naturally to us that we take it for granted. It’s actually a difficult computation that doesn’t happen automatically for every creature with a pair of forward-facing eyes.

Stereopsis was present on one or more tests in 15 of these 30 (50%) children. Baseline characteristics and postoperative findings did not differ between patients with or without stereopsis.

Stereopsis allows humans to judge distance and have true depth perception by extracting information from the left and right eyes and then letting our brains do some complex processing.

Stereopsis, or binocular vision, is the perception of depth produced by the brain when it receives visual stimuli from both eyes in combination. When a person stares at an object, ...

Their goal: To confirm that praying mantises can see in 3-D, an ability scientists call stereopsis, or binocular vision. The results, published recently in Scientific Reports, ...

This small-angle deviation allows for limited binocular visual function (i.e., gross stereopsis) and an increased likelihood of stable long-term alignment (“monofixation”). 13,22–24 High ...

Stereopsis Generated with Julesz Patterns in Spite of Rivalry Imposed by Colour Filters. V. S. Ramachandran and S. Sriram in Nature, Vol. 237, pages 347–348; June 9, 1972.

Known as stereopsis, the trick takes a lot of processing power—and scientists didn't think many animals had enough brains to do it. But that idea has slowly changed overtime.
