3D object-state depth map test #888

This is an example of a 3D object-state  created from a 2D drawing (ink pen and color dye marker on paper scanned at 200 dpi) using a depth map and chromatic oscillation (inverted hue at .1 intervals).  The depth map system creates a Z axis in what was otherwise a 2D image with only a X, Y axis. Essentially the depth map is a visual algorithm that is similar to Z-buffer in computer graphics.
