- Nvidia to release Stereoscopic glasses soon -
The NVIDIA
GeForce Stereoscopic 3D driver works at the lowest level by taking 3D
game data and rendering each scene twice - once for the left eye and once
for the right eye. Each eye image is offset from each other for the correct
viewing. The GPU then sends this data to a 3D Ready display. These displays
show the left eye view for even frames (0, 2, 4, etc) and the right eye view
for odd frames (1, 3, 5, etc). NVIDIA 3D glasses then synchronize back to
the 3D Ready display and present slightly different images to each eye
resulting in the illusion of depth and an incredibly immersive experience
for games.
