The Nimslo took advantage of lenticular printing to create 3D images out of 35 mm film. Each photo took up 2 frames instead of the regular single frame (18 3D photos can be produced with a 36-exposure film roll). It was touted to be an advancement in photographic technol...ogy when it was introduced but sadly it wasn't received well commercially. Jerry Curtis Nims and Allen Kwok Wah Lo were credited for the creation of the Nimslo camera and its corresponding lenticular printing process (although other types of lenticular printing were also present during the time of its conception).
Four fixed focus glass lenses snapped two-dimensional photographs that varied in little in perspective but when spliced together, form a single 3-dimensional photograph. This is where the special printing process comes in. The Nimslo used a LED light to put a green dot in the exposed film that serves as a guiding point for the printer. The lenticular printer then cuts the images into vertical strips that create the desired 3D image effect.
