What is Lenticular?

Morphing Lenticular GraphicIt is a piece of ribbed plastic with lenticules running vertically - ranging from 15 line per inch to 150 line per inch. Each rib is a lens. Each lens is set up according to viewing distance, depth and field of view through a logarithmic process commonly known as 'interlacing'. This assists in incrementally developing the movement that the brain interprets and the eye 'appears' to see.

Thicker lenses make better 3D, thinner lenses fit in more animation frames.

I hear the extended version of cs4 has lenticular suppot and there are 3rd pty solutions like Human Eyes which feature a 60 day free mac trial!
