Hi,

if you plan to use the IR emitter and work in groups (> 10 people), you are probably going to need a stronger IR emitter. If people are sitting in rows, the IR emitter signal can get lost in the backrows. Better to have a short throw beamer so nobody gets in the way (at a distance of 1 meter from the wall I get a 2 meters wide picture). You need a beamer with _at least_ 3000 ANSI (absolut minimum as the glasses filter out light).
A resolution of ±720p more than enough.
Nividia glasses are expensive (100$).

I purchased the optoma gt750-xl a few years ago because of the 3-pin stereo connector on the beamer (no need for high end cards with 3-pin). It can be used with the IR-emitter connected to the beamer (and a cheap quadro or gtx card) and Nvidia glasses or with cheap DLP-link 3D glasses. The 3-pin option on beamers is disappearing because of the cheap DLP-link 3D glasses (white-flash in between right and left picture). We purchased 20 XPAND DLP-link 3D glasses (more rigid, professional cinema glasses but still cheaper than Nvidia glasses) and the set-up works great.

Since you are based (German but I think intuitive to many for selecting a beamer based on different options):

Dear CCP4ers,

sorry for the off-topic mail:

We are looking for a 3D-beamer for teaching purposes (structural biology courses).

In the “teaching rooms” we have lots of high-end workstations equipped with 3D-stereo (Nvidia Nvision2, Quadro K5000, ASUS 27” VG278HE) that work perfectly in 3D (Scientific linux). As we have this many Nvidia setups with nvidia glasses it would be nice if we could also use the glasses for presentations done with a 3D-beamer. However, having a look at the Nvidia webpage it seems that the list of compatible projectors is mainly listing products that are not available anymore.

Is there anybody out there using a 3D-beamer (linux OS preferred, windows will probably work anyway as the emitter is synced via USB) for COOT/PyMOL presentations using the Nvidia Nvision(1/2) setups? Any recommendation for the beamer? Has anybody tested e.g. the Canon LV-8235UST or the Acer products with PyMOL/Coot?

It is probably better to email me directly as this off-topic – I will post a summary to the bb later on.

Thanks and cheers from munich!

Gregor
