Do I need 3D glasses to see the effect?

Yes for stereoscopic depth: use standard glasses with red over the left eye and cyan over the right. Without glasses, the result remains a deliberate red-cyan graphic treatment rather than a normal-color photo.

Is the result the same as a real two-camera stereo photograph?

No. One photograph contains no view of surfaces hidden behind foreground objects. Depth estimation and bounded horizontal reprojection create a useful synthetic stereo pair, but fine occlusion edges, glass, reflections, hair, and foliage can remain imperfect. The 1% near and 2% far caps reduce excessive disparity; viewing comfort still depends on display size, distance, glasses, and the viewer, so lower the intensity or stop viewing if it feels uncomfortable.

About the Depth Anaglyph 3D effect

Depth Anaglyph 3D estimates relative scene depth, builds left and right views with subpixel bilinear horizontal sampling, and combines them through a gamma-correct Dubois red-cyan color projection. The intensity control scales the actual stereo separation instead of blending an unshifted third ghost into the image. At full strength, near parallax is capped at 1% and far parallax at 2% of image width, while a narrow border safety zone returns both views to the screen plane to avoid clipped edge doubles. Framing and uploaded alpha remain exact in a lossless PNG.

How it works

Processing

Depth Anaglyph 3D uses an AI action. Any separate allowance is shown before this effect starts processing.

Best for

layered interiors, still lifes, architecture, landscapes, science or museum content, album artwork, and images intended for standard red-cyan 3D glasses.

Less suited to: flat scenes, transparent or reflective surfaces, hair and foliage against similar backgrounds, objects cut by the frame edge, and any use that must look normal without glasses because colored fringes are intentional.
