Hi Stuart,
Well, 20,000 £ (ex VAT) for a 20" UXGA is probably not something a lab
can afford as easily as a CRT + graphic board... unless you would like
to ship some free for advertisement (-;
Best regards,
Philippe

Anastassis,
Interesting to read about the demise of the CRT and your problems with
flickering screens.
You (and the other BB members) may be interested to learn of an
alternative technology from IRIS-3D in the UK. Historically
targeted at the Oil and Gas Sector for subsurface imaging, it is now
being evaluated in the Life Sciences. This product does not suffer
from the flickering issues mentioned in this thread, being based
around dual projection LCD technology and not requiring special
glasses to view:
The IRIS solution is a glasses-free 3D display system that enables you
to work at up to UXGA resolution in stereo mode, is 2D/3D compatible,
can be used in a normal office environment, does not suffer from
stereo cross-talk (this means no more ghosting, eye-strain or
headaches - enabling you to concentrate on your data rather than be
distracted by the display technology) and is compatible with all
stereo enabled software on a wide range of SW/HW platforms.
More information is available from the company website or by
contacting me directly.
Regards,
Stuart

Subject: Re: [ccp4bb]: Current Stereo 3D Display Info
Hi all -
While on the subject and after thanking Warren for providing the
excellent resource ...:
We have some nice 3D monitors and Nvidia cards in Linux PC's we do
stereo with.
Warren correctly points out that you need:
1280x960 @ 120 Hz requires H-sync of 123 kHz
1344x1008 @ 120 Hz requires H-sync of 130 kHz
1400x1050 @ 120 Hz requires H-sync of 136 kHz
(In fact you need your monitor to switch to these refresh rates only
when in stereo, but thats a detail)
However, I am totally unable to convince the NVidia drivers we have
for Linux to
operate at the sync rates I want them to and Warren advices! Thus, we
have noticeable flicker at stereo
mode (in the non-stereo windows only) which is a shame, given our
excellent monitors.
Is that expected or can be corrected ?
Could anyone please advice me how to set the Nvidia Linux drivers to
operate at the proper sync rates then ?
Tassos
PS - Iiyama Vision Master Pro 514 / HM204DT (H-sync: 142 kHz) is
still available by some European vendors new and is great, we have
two, plus an old trusty EIZO T966 which is also cool. (Warren, I
could not find that on your list,its a good machine, does 136 and you
might be able to find one still)

Folks,
Whether you favor Macintosh, Linux, or Windows for stereo 3D
visualization, you're going to need some specific (and increasingly
rare) hardware.
To help you find it, we've just updated our information page on
stereo-3D-capable displays, cards, emitters, and glasses:
http://pymol.sf.net/stereo3d.html
Remarkably, we can now only find one company selling a brand new CRT
monitor suitable for stereo 3D. If you find any others, please do
let
us know!
Cheers,
Warren
