Summary: Stereographic Visualisation

Initial Comment:
It would be very useful (and I think quite easy to 
implement?) to be able to switch on a stereographic 
view mode.

For use by those without special hardware this mode 
would ideally allow freeviewing (i.e. not require 
specialised hardware), for example by the cross-eyed 
method (since the alternative parallel-eyed method limits 
the maximum size of the image). 

http://www.starosta.com/3dshowcase/ihelp.html gives a 
detailed explanation of how cross-eyed viewing is 
achieved, and http://www.cip.physik.uni-
muenchen.de/~wwieser/render/stereo/pview.html 
explains how to set up such a stereogram. Essentially 
the applet would need to display the same image twice 
side-by-side, with a very small horizontal rotation 
between the two images. 

The user can then view the molecule in 3d without the 
need for special hardware, and gain a far better 
impression of the 3d structure.

I have succesfully generated stereographic images of 
molecules by placing two slightly rotated JMol 
screenshots side-by-side; however, this obviously 
cannot support rotation of the molecule, which would 
add to the value of the experience.

Thanks, you guys are doing amazing work
