Answer
The lenticular stereoscope, invented by Sir David Brewster, revolutionized the field of 3D viewing. This optical device, featuring a series of parallel cylindrical lenses, enabled the creation of stereoscopic images by combining two slightly offset photographs. When viewed through the lenticular lens, these images merged, providing a remarkable illusion of depth and three-dimensionality. Brewster's invention became instrumental in various applications, including stereoscopic photography, entertainment, and scientific visualization.
