It's been a century or so since stereo images were all the rage, but apparently some folks have never lost interest in capturing separate left- and right-eye images and mechanically combining them to create heightened realism. A couple of nerds at Kodak note how new stitching features in many of the company's recent digital camera introductions can aid the aspiring stereographer and then give a precise tutorial on how to make it work.

Note that to view the completed work, you'll need a stereoscope or similar type of viewer, a gadget that seems best accompanied by an opium pipe and a fez to relive that Victorian giddiness with the possibilities of photography.

Additional note: You might want to keep working on that turnaround plan, Kodak, rather than putting all your eggs in the stereoscope revival basket.
