Steroscopic Laser Projection

[masterpj]

I've seen some of the full-color stereoscopic 3D laser shows a certain member on this board has been making using 3d polarized glasses. It's pretty mind blowing. It's not my place to describe his setup so he can fill in if he wants. I think it's natively supported in some of the laser packages that work with 3d objects, and I was toying with the idea some in my software since it's very easy to get openGL to output your left and right stereo views via the GLUT library.

That would be pangolin LD2000 and LaserGraph DSP.
Both support it however it's more advertised for the lasergraph.
For LD2000 it's a settings toggle that you can find in ld2000.ini

I've seen anaglyph, Chromadepth , two scan heads, and polarization flipping on alternate scans, in my lifetime. Since modern diodes have 100:1 or 200: polarization in most cases, a pair of scan heads would be appropriate. You use the same vertical signal, and you create horizontal with a few opamps hanging off the QM2000. Easy enough to do.

Chromadepth gave me headaches. This happens to a small percentage of the population. However it is inexpensive to adopt.

Chromadepth worked very well on older Ion based projectors with a yellow line for four depth planes. Diode RGB gets you three depth planes.
