1. A system for viewing images of a scene, comprising:

  • a monocular device adapted to be wearable by a viewer on either eye of the viewer, the monocular device comprising (a) a first display for displaying first two-dimensional images of the scene with a first perspective to one eye of the viewer, the first display including an optical axis and a mechanism for rotating the first display about the optical axis, and (b) an eye sensor that automatically determines on which eye the viewer is wearing the monocular device by sensing a spatial orientation of the monocular device, and by supplying a corresponding signal directly to a processor used in the system, the signal dependent upon the spatial orientation of the monocular device;

    a second display for displaying second two-dimensional images of the scene with a second perspective to the other eye of the viewer, wherein the second perspective is different from the first perspective; and

    a left/right video channel selector that selects the first perspective of the first two-dimensional images based on the orientation of the monocular device on either the left eye or the right eye of the viewer,wherein the first display is configured to rotate in response at least in part to analyzed images displayed on the second display.
