Abstract
The invention relates to a method and system for generating a 3-dimensional image on a 2-dimensional display of a device. The method includes the steps of receiving an image in image processor means and using the image processor means to determine at least two pixels layers in the image. A proximity value is then assigned to each pixel layer wherein the proximity value is indicative of a depth perception of the pixel layer relative to a user of a device having a display screen. An instruction module is then coupled to the image operative to cause each pixel layer to move along an axis of orientation on the 2-dimensional display of the device and at a velocity rate dependent upon the proximity value assigned to the pixel layer.

A computer implemented method for generating a 3-dimensional image at a computing device, the computing device having a processor and a memory accessible by the processor, the method comprising:
- receiving an image at the memory, the image having one or more elements;
- processing the image with the processor to identify at least one pixel layer within the image, the pixel layer corresponding to at least one element;
- assigning a proximity value to the pixel layer, the proximity value corresponding to a depth perception of the image;
- coupling an instruction module with the image, the instruction module containing one or more instructions that facilitate movement of the pixel layer based on the proximity value.
