If you have not picked up on it by now: the human brain processes everything you do at all times. The brain is way more complicated than we give it credit for.

If you give your brain nonsensical 3D it will attempt to make sense of it in any way it can. One possible conclusion that your brain can reach is that the imagery is not the problem but instead that you are under the influence of a neurotoxin and cannot properly process the image. Of course you are not poisoned but your subconscious can think of no other solution. As such your brain will kick into survival mode and make you nauseous to eject the contents of your stomach.

This is just one example of how playing games with how your brain perceives the world can be difficult and require extreme care.


And you aint seen nothin' yet!

The entire article is worth reading.

I am planning to buy some sort of 3D display soon, so any useful links in this regard would be appreciated.
