Stereoscoptic Vision

Our software supports stereoscoptic vision using devices such as the Planar system (www.Planar3d.com) We recommend the nvidia quadro fx 580 graphics card or higher for this function. Below are instructions to set up the nvidia card for stereo for Windows and Linux.

Within the programs, when you have a 3D room view, under "Frame Control" select "Options..." and then turn on stereo. If the Stereo option is grayed out, then you did not get a stereo visual. Review set up of your graphics card. See also Stereo in the user's manual for System2100 under section "3D Views".
