By 'panning' the camera from right to left all the time, the one darker lens
fools the brain into creating a realistic 3d image from the changing
perspective. If the lens were over the left eye, panning from left to right
would do it. So, all you need to do to create a Coke-3D animation on the amiga
is to keep the 'camera' moving from right to left while animating a 3D world.
