Claim One:
1. A stereoscopic optic adapter comprising: an optical relay comprising a single optical path, the optical relay being interconnectable between an image capture device and an optical lens of said image capture device, the optical relay comprising a stereoscopic shutter and at least one optical element; wherein the stereoscopic shutter is configured to produce a stereoscopic image from an original image captured by the optical lens of the image capture device; wherein the at least one optical element of the optical relay is configured to transmit the original image along a single optical path from said optical lens through said stereoscopic shutter to said image capture device without altering the lens characteristics of said optical lens, such that a stereoscopic image having the same optical characteristics of the original image is transmitted to the image capture device from the optical relay; and wherein a relative rotational alignment around the optical path axis between the stereoscopic shutter and the image capture device is adjustable such that a stereoscopic image may be produced regardless of the orientation of the image capture device.
