How to post a 3d image on facebook?

It’s really simple, you don’t have to download any android apps or register to any websites/like fb pages to use this feature.

In quick steps:

2. Name the files correctly: imagename.jpg and imagename_depth.jpg
3. Upload the files to facebook

More detailed explanation below:

You only need two files – the image .jpg and the depth map .jpg.

Depth map is a .jpg file created from your illustration, that helps FB’s algoritm to determine which object on the image should be “closer”. The whiter – the closer it is.

You have to upload the two files to Facebook – just click on “photo/video” in the “create post” box, and pick the images.

Important
: I order to create the 3d image on Facebook, you neem to name the files correctly – imagename.jpg and imagename_depth.jpg
“imagename” – you can pick any name you want, just remember to add “_depth” to the depth maps name.
