    A lenticular print is an image that has been sliced into strips which are then interlaced with one or more other images. The image is then printed on the back of a series of prism like lenses. The lenses are lined up with each image interlace, so that light reflected off each strip is reflected in a slightly different direction, but all strips from the same image are sent in the same direction (parallel).

    The end result is that a single eye/camera looking at the print will see a single whole image, but another eye/camera at different position will see a different image because of the different angle of view. How different depends on the lenses used, the number of original images, and how different the original images were from each other.

    Things people use Lenticular Print for
    Typically three different types of lenticular prints are used:

      Transforming prints, where the distance between different angles of view is 'large'. Here two or more very different pictures are used, and you see a different one depending on which angle you view the print at. In order to allow people to easily see the original photos, large differences are used, so that small movement will not cause changes.

      Motion capturing prints, where the distance between different angles of view is 'medium" so that while both eyes usually see the same picture, moving a little bit more switches to the next picture in the series, creating a motion effect.

      3-d effects, where the angle position is 'small', 6-7 centimeters(2-2.5 inches) This causes each eye to see a slightly different view, creating the 3d effect without the use of glasses.
