P3D Converting 2D into Simulated 3D

Somewhere I heard of someone taking standard photos and retaking pictures
with a camera from two differing angles and being able to simulate a 3D
illusion. Has anyone else heard of this or have reproduced this with good
results?  I don't see how it could be manually done with cameras, but
perhaps there is some software that can "morph" one 2d image's elements to
create a visual effect of appearing to be looking at the subjects in the
image from differing perspectives-one from the left and one from the right?
That could conceivably be then used to create a stereo analygraph from the
"morphed" images. If the software is not yet known to exist, someone should
develop one.
