<BR>
I use VTK with a stereo projection system constantly. Drew’ Dolgert’s post is correct, you need to go into the advanced settings for the video driver and enable stereo. You also need to set the video card in a mode that simulates the crystal eyes hardware stereo that VTK’s stereo function is designed for. I don’t know about Wildcat video cards, but on nVidia Quadro cards, the mode is called “clone mode”. Both projectors will display exactly the same thing, except the vtk render windows will show left and right eye views respectively.<BR>

I have two Benq projectors and a Wildcat II 5110 graphics card and I would like to view my 3D model using the stereo mode in VTK.<BR>
<BR>
This is a part of code I’ve written:<BR>
<BR>
</SPAN></FONT><SPAN STYLE='font-size:13.0px'><FONT FACE="Courier New">vtkRenderer *renderer = vtkRenderer::New();<BR>
vtkRenderWindow *renWin = vtkRenderWindow::New();<BR>
renWin->AddRenderer(renderer);<BR>
renWin->SetStereoCapableWindow(1);<BR>
renWin->StereoRenderOn();<BR>
renWin->SetFullScreen(1);<BR>
renWin->SetStereoTypeToCrystalEyes();<BR>
renWin->StereoUpdate();<BR>
</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial"> <BR>
There are no errors but I can view the window only in one of the two windows of the screen (one projector works as extended window).<BR>
Probably a solution it will be to use two different render windows, one for the left eye and one for the right, but I don’t know how to put one window in the first projector and the other window in the second projector.<BR>
<BR>
There is a easy solution for my problem<BR>
<BR>
Thanks in advance<BR>
