2Um, could you clarify your question? Do you mean "does Android have a 3D Carousel selector"? (answer: no -- there are no 3D widgets) Do you mean "has anyone seen an app with a 3D Carousel selector"? Do you mean "does anyone know how to implement a 3D Carousel selector"? Also, a link to an image of what you consider a 3D Carousel selector to be would help – CommonsWare Mar 10 '10 at 16:55

You would have to program it yourself I'd imagine, making use of the newly updated NDK – Donal Rafferty Mar 10 '10 at 17:35

As I mentioned in my answer to a similar question, you might peruse the CarouselView example code mentioned in the "Designing Android UIs for Phones and Tablets" session at Google I/O 2011.
The example makes heavy use of the Renderscript framework, released with Android 3.0. As such, the example code is for API levels 11 and up. Variations of the CarouselView component were used in several of the applications within Honeycomb including Books and YouTube when creating 3D carousel effects.
