The Amazing Card Collection 2009
1
The Amazing Card is the most spectacular card you have ever seen! You can send it like any ordinary greeting card, unfold it and it becomes a 3D viewer! The Amazing Card is a registered trademark and the product is fully patented. The Amazing Card shows fantastic 3D images of the highest quality. Size 10 x 14,5 cm. What is stereo 3D? One human eye is capable of seeing things in 2D only. Just hold your hand in front of one of your eyes and you will no longer be able to see depth.When looking with both eyes this vision becomes 3D only because our eyes are slightly apart and therefore each of them are able to see things from a slightly different angle. Each eye can see a little bit “behind� what the other eye can see. In our brain these two different images are combined and so we are able to see depth. The stereo principle in The Amazing Card is basically the same. The left and right image of the stereostrip are taken from a slightly different angle and the lenses combine this image in our brain to see 3D. Retail Cards Published by Courtesy Graphics in Holland there are Amazing Cards for every occasion including Celebration, Everyday, Fine Art, Escher, Black & White, Floral and Christmas cards. You can also see the full collection and additional information on our website. Creating your own Amazing Cards is easy! There are two possibilities to create stereo images for yourself or your customers: 1. Using our digital StereoCamera With the help of our digital Amazing StereoCamera you can create stereo images that can be used directly in The Amazing Card. To design the outside of the card you can use our template.
Introduction 2. Converting images from 2D into 3D If you want to use images that cannot be photographed by our Amazing StereoCamera we can convert any of your exsisting photographs, illustrations or paintings into a 3D stereo image. Price depends on the complexity of the subject. Displays Because it is of the utmost importance that your customers can see all Amazing Cards in full stereo view we have developed four card displays. Full details can be found on Page 23. Custom-made Amazing Cards If you are interested to use The Amazing Card in your next sales promotion campaign, direct mail or company Christmas card, please contact us for more information. Human-in-3D This too is a very exciting possibility using The Amazing Card. Within 2 minutes you can create a stereo-image and present it to your customer in an Amazing Card that has the print and layout of your own choice. Wonderful sales promotion opportunities not only for Shows and Trade Fairs but also to create souvenirs for museums or the tourist market. Please contact us for further details.

The Amazing StereoCard is a completely new product based on the success of our awardwinning Amazing Cards. Each StereoCard carries an offset printed stereo-image, interesting information on the subject and on the back a full size print of the featured image. Our new StereoViewers are different from our Amazing Cards as they have no stereo-image inside. You insert a StereoCard between two yellow guidelines into the StereoViewer to see the image on the StereoCard in full Stereo 3D! Squeeze the viewer to focus as usual. With just one StereoViewer you can see the images of all StereoCards in our collection in 3D. Now your customers can buy a stereo-image for the price of a regular postcard. This new product is especially interesting for museums because the cards are easy to customize and there is plenty of space for additional information. StereoCards measure 10 x 14 cm. More information can be found on our website. StereoBoxes StereoBoxes make nice gifts and contain one StereoViewer and 6 different StereoCards. We start with Escher and Van Gogh. More boxes to be published soon! Displays A special counter display is available with 2 pockets holding 18 StereoViewers and 14 pockets each holding up to 25 StereoCards. At a later stage we are planning a floor display. Creating your own StereoCards and Viewers If you are interested to design and create your own bespoke StereoCards and Stereo- Viewers please contact us for more information.
