In plain words

This is a raycaster that converts 3D graphics into random dot stereograms, the autostereoscopic images popularized by Magic Eye. It renders traditional ray-traced scenes into the distinctive dot patterns that create 3D illusions when viewed with proper eye convergence. Designed for enthusiasts of both 3D graphics and stereoscopic visualization, it combines retro gaming technology with optical illusion techniques. The project is available on GitHub.
