3D Photography - Can new tech make it more accessible?

Thank you for your response 3D Gunner.  When I used my iPhone to take a picture of an old 3D stereo card and used my binocular head band magnifier, I could see the 3D effect very well and, since the quality of the original image was OK but not spectacular the quality was acceptable on the phone, but on my computer, because I had to reduce the size so much and screen resolution is 72 DPI it was poor.

My thinking was that you could share 3D images with friends while they looked at them using a folding viewer.  With a proper design, it might be that the viewer could also act as the phone case.  Just seeing some 3D photos might perk their interest in tying it themselves or at least appreciate the realism 3D offers.  The distribution of your images to a group of phones is where I thought some type of short range WiFi transmitter would be helpful.

I included the slide I used.  Although the image has TIFF printed on it, it is actually a JPG.  I was doing a test to see if there was any real difference between and TIFF download and a TIFF or JPG print.  There was no appreciable difference.  The image below was from a print set for 300dpi off an Epson R2000 photo printer.  It is a photo of the Spanish Gate in St. Augustine, Florida.  Copyright was 1905, I think it has expired.

Did you know that the Library of Congress has a collection of stereographs and most of them can be downloaded?  How cool is that!
