I’m the product manager for profession= al stereo solutions here at NVIDIA. Sumit asked me to give an overview of= =20our professional stereo options. NVIDIA Quadro boards and applications= =20like PyMol and VMD, give you a wide range of stereo display options on Windows and Linux.

First, 3D Vision is now supported on Linux f= or certain Quadro boards (recent ones with the stereo connector). Our web= site is being updated to have a “3D Vision for Quadro – Linux= ” page which will cover all the details. I’ll let you know the URL once it’s posted. For those that want a head start, th= e feature is in the 195.36.15 driver, take a look at the README for confi= guration specifics. (For those on Windows, the 3D Vision requirements are= =20here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/quadro_p= ro_graphics_boards.html)

3D Visions isn’t your only option thou= gh. The Linux and Windows drivers both support most all the stereo displa= ys and projectors that are on the market today. In the driver control pan= el, or xconfig, tell the driver what sort of stereo signal your display expects, configure the application to “page fli= p”, “active” or “CrystalEyes” mode and off = you go.

We’re still working through profession= al support for the newly available consumer TVs. The current set of panel= s are really designed for blue ray or broadcast TV stereo which has a dif= ferent set of requirements from professional applications. You’ll certainly be able to play blu-ray 3D and video on the these = panels later this year, but running applications like VMD isn’t qui= te ready yet.
