I am now using an autostereoscopic display (no 3D glasses required) from DTI Technologies. I have been using this display with PyMol and the stereo is great. There is essentially no eye strain and no flicker at all.
It does not work correctly with COOT since it requires a slight modification to the side by side stereo mode to work correctly. Essentially the left and right images are rendered full size, then compressed horizontally by half before being displayed. Is it possible to add this mode to COOT or provide info on how to do it so I can make a special version. Here is the exact info from the DTI Technologies website: To render side-by-side stereo (2:1 aspect ratio) which is compatible with any Virtual Window series display. 1. Prepare two cameras in your graphics or rendering application. Each camera represents each eyes view. Render two scenes, one for the left eye view and one right eye view. 2. Squeeze the horizontal size of each image (1 left / 1 right) into half and place both of them onto one frame... For example: If you are rendering 1024x768 images, youll will have two 1024x768 images representing a left/right eye view. Each image is then squeezed, making them 512x768 images. These two images are then put onto a single frame, the left image on the left half of the frame and the right image on the right. So the final result is a 1024x768 side-by-side stereo image. Any help would be appreciated.
