Believe it or not, 3D photography has existed for over 150 years.

In 1838 Professor Charles Wheatstone established that humans perceive depth when the brain combines two slightly different images.
.... stereo photography grew to become one of the most popular forms of entertainment, becoming as widespread as TV is today. In the 1890’s nearly every home owned a stereoscope.
