Ste`re*op"ti*con (?), n. [NL. See
Stereo-, and Optic.] An instrument, consisting
essentially of a magic lantern in which photographic pictures are
used, by which the image of a landscape, or any object, may be thrown
upon a screen in such a manner as to seem to stand out in relief, so
as to form a striking and accurate representation of the object
itself; also, a pair of magic lanterns for producing the effect of
dissolving views.
