A South Korean technology institute is giving pop-up storybooks an innovative 21st Century twist. With Digilog Books, developers have found a way to tell truly tall tales in three dimensions.

It took Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology three years to create this digitally animated feast for the eyes. Readers have to wear goggles attached to a computer.

As they turn and tilt the books, the 3D animation moves accordingly. Images appear to literally jump from the pages.

The developers have animated two children's books containing Korean folk tales. They add that it will be a while before the new technology is ready to be marketed to the general public.
