A method is disclosed for performing stereoscopic imaging. The method may involve obtaining a first image of a scene, at a first time, using a camera disposed on a platform, where the distance between the camera and the scene is changing. The camera may be used to obtain a second image of the scene, at a second time, with one of the first and second images being larger than the other. One of the images that is larger than the other may be resized so that the sizes of the two images are substantially similar. Both of the images may be rotated a predetermined degree so that the images form a stereo pair that may be viewed with a stereoscope viewing component or made into an anaglyph for viewing with an anaglyph viewing component.

1. A method for performing stereoscopic imaging comprising: obtaining a first image of a scene, at a first time, using a camera disposed on a mobile platform, where a first distance between the camera and the scene is changing as a result of movement of at least one of the camera or the scene being imaged, along an axis of movement;using the camera to obtain a second image of the scene, at a second time, where a second distance between the camera and the scene is different from the first distance, thus causing one of said first and second images to be larger than the other, and wherein the second image is taken along the axis of movement;resizing said one of said images so that the sizes of the two images are substantially similar; androtating both of said images a predetermined degree so that said images form a stereo pair that may be viewed with a stereoscope viewing component or made into an anaglyph for viewing with an anaglyph viewing component. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein said obtaining first and second images using a camera disposed on a platform comprises obtaining first and second images using a camera mounted on a mobile platform, and where the axis of movement is the direction of travel of the mobile platform. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein said camera is aimed generally parallel to the direction of travel of said mobile platform, and wherein said camera is aimed forwardly relative to the direction of travel of said mobile platform; and wherein said mobile platform is moving toward said scene when said first and second images are acquired with said camera. 4. The method of claim 2, wherein said camera is aimed generally parallel to the direction of travel of said mobile platform, and aimed rearwardly relative to the direction of travel of said mobile platform; and wherein said mobile platform is moving away from said scene when said first and second images are acquired with said camera. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein said mobile platform is stationary and said scene is moving toward said mobile platform in a direction generally parallel to a direction in which said camera is aimed. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising using a stereoscope to view said stereo pair. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein said resizing one of said images further comprises compressing said one of said images more along a first axis than along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein said rotating said images comprises rotating both of said images by 0 to 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise from an orientation that said images were initially acquired in. 9. The method of claim 2, wherein said using a camera mounted on a mobile platform comprises using a camera mounted on an aircraft. 10. A method for performing stereoscopic imaging comprising: obtaining a first image of a scene, at a first time, using a camera disposed on a mobile platform, and where the distance between the camera and the scene is changing while the mobile platform travels along an axis of movement;using the camera to obtain a second image of the scene, at a second time, while the mobile platform remains travelling along said axis of movement, thus causing said first and second images to be obtained at different distances from said camera, and thus causing said second image to be larger than the first image;resizing said one of said images so that the sizes of the two images are substantially similar; androtating both of said images a predetermined degree so that said images form a stereo pair that may be either viewed with a stereo pair viewing component or made into an anaglyph for viewing with an anaglyph viewing component. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein said using the camera to obtain said first and second images comprises using the camera to obtain said first and second images while said mobile platform is travelling toward said scene. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein said using the camera to obtain said first and second images comprises using the camera to obtain the first and second images while the mobile platform is travelling away from the scene. 13. The method of claim 10, wherein said using the camera to obtain the first and second images comprises using the camera to obtain the first and second images while the mobile platform is stationary and the scene is moving toward the mobile platform. 14. The method of claim 10 wherein said rotating the first and second images comprises rotating said first and second images by 0 to 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise. 15. The method of claim 14, further comprising positioning said images adjacent one another such that said images form said stereo pair. 16. The method of claim 10, wherein said using a camera disposed on a mobile platform comprises using a camera disposed on an airborne mobile platform. 17. The method of claim 10, further comprising using a stereoscope to view said stereo pair. 18. The method of claim 10, wherein said using a camera to obtain said first and second images comprises using a digital camera to obtain first and second digital images. 19. The method of claim 18, wherein said resizing of said first and second digital images and said rotating of said first and second digital images comprises digitally resizing said first and second digital images and digitally rotating said first and second digital images. 20. A system for producing a stereoscopic image, comprising: a camera mounted on a platform for obtaining a first and second images of a scene at two different points in time, said images further being obtained by said camera along the same axis of movement while a distance between said platform and said scene is changing, such that one of said images is larger than the other; anda processor adapted to analyze said images and to resize said one of said images such that both of said images are approximately the same size, and to rotate both of said images in a common rotational direction by a predetermined degree, to create a stereo pair that may be either viewed with a stereo pair viewing component or made into an anaglyph for viewing with an anaglyph viewing component.
