the appearance and visual content of the displayed systems. There are
several stereo formats available:
- Quad-buffered stereo, (aka CrystalEyes in older versions),
which requires a stereo-capable monitor,
quad-buffered stereo video board or GPU,
stereo emitters and stereo glasses equipped with
liquid crystal or polarized lenses.
- Above/Below stereo;
- Side-by-side stereo for paper-printed images;
- HDTV Side-by-side stereo for stereo flat panel displays and TVs
- Anaglyph stereo (requires stereo-capable monitor,
quad-buffered stereo video board,
and red-blue horror-movie-style stereo glasses).
- Checkerboard, also known as line blanking stereo,
works with compatible shutter glasses and DLP projectors.
- Column-interleaved,
works with compatible shutter glasses and LCD panel displays.
