Hi Michael, it’s an interesting system. It uses a special lenticular overlaminate film applied to the custom printed images which allows the "3D" effect to take place. They also seem to be offering a system which allows direct printing (UV flatbed) to glass, possibly double-sided, in order to obtain the effect.

These provide more info. The first one lensfree is you print your own lenticular sheet. That would cut costs down. Maybe someone on here has experimented with it.
These programs use HASP softdogs, something I personally hate as there are only so many ports on the computer. too easy to lose or they break some want you to buy a new program or rob you for replacements.

Thanks for posting those links Michael. I am fascinated by this sort of thing and would love to have a go at it.

We have tried this out, you first print your lines (that create the effect) on one side of the clear prespex or glass. Then you print the humaneyes file on the reverse. The only problem is that you would need a backlit box to see the images properly. The other option is to print both the line and the image onto clear vinyl and laminate them on both sides of clear persex or glass, the only problem is that the images have to back each other perfectly to see the proper images.
