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

Stereo images would be most flexible if you could add a parameter that 
sets the offset between images. Small offsets would allow the feature 
requested above. Large offsets (a full screen width) would allow jmol to be 
used with geowall.
