A new app is coming out for the iPhone, with an interesting gimmick: 3D Stereo without glasses.

Canadian kids’ broadcaster Family Channel, the Sheridan Visualization Design Institute and Spatial View Inc. have collaborated, through an Ontario Centres of Excellence OCE project, to create a glasses-free 3D mini game for the Apple iPhone.

Carnival Craze can be played and viewed in natural 3D, without glasses, on an Apple iPhone, equipped with a 3DeeShell from Toronto-based Spatial View.

The “3DeeShell” is a special case for the iPhone that separates the screen into interlaces lines that are viewing-angle restricted at the interocular distance.  The result is that (at very specific viewing distances & angles) the screen has a 3D effect similar to that of stereoscopic glasses.
