Stereo Photography or Stereoscopy refers to photos taken with a Stereo Camera. This is a type of camera with two or more lenses. This allows the camera to simulate human binocular vision, and therefore gives it the ability to capture 3-D Images.
Traditional stereoscopic photography consists of creating a 3-D illusion starting from a pair of 2-D images. The easiest way to create depth perception in the brain is to provide to the eyes of the viewer two different images, representing two perspectives of the same object, with a minor deviation similar to the perspectives that both eyes naturally receive in binocular vision.
The pictures below were taken with a Stereo Camera. They are shown one after the other in quick succession to create the perception of depth. More examples can be found here.
