If you try to use it be prepared for problems getting it to work and to pay a lot of money. We have been using active stereo LCD with a stereo projector for many decades. We use it infrequently now, instead using virtual reality headsets with our ChimeraX software. Virtual reality headsets give better immersion but don't yet easily handle having a half-dozen people viewing the same scene in the same room (would require 6 separate computers driving the 6 headsets).</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""> Here are details on the old LCD glasses projector system we are have which is working:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>10 pairs of RealD CE4 and CE4s stereo glasses ($280 each)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span> <a href="http://www.colorlinkjapan.com/brand/product/ce4s.html" class="">http://www.colorlinkjapan.com/brand/product/ce4s.html</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>A Stereo Graphics EXXR extra long range emitter ($780)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><a href="http://www.colorlinkjapan.com/brand/product/exxr-emitter.html" class="">http://www.colorlinkjapan.com/brand/product/exxr-emitter.html</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>A Christie Mirage S+4K projector circa 2006, (1440 x 1050 resolution), no longer in production</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><a href="https://www.projectorcentral.com/Christie-Mirage_S+4K.htm" class="">https://www.projectorcentral.com/Christie-Mirage_S+4K.htm</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>An Nvidia Quadro P6000 graphics card ($3700)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><a href="https://www.amazon.com/PNY-Quadro-P6000-Graphic-Card-x/dp/B01M0S2FKR" class="">https://www.amazon.com/PNY-Quadro-P6000-Graphic-Card-x/dp/B01M0S2FKR</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>with a stereo emitter bracket</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><a href="http://www8.hp.com/h20195/v2/GetPDF.aspx/c04658472.pdf" class="">http://www8.hp.com/h20195/v2/GetPDF.aspx/c04658472.pdf</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">This system breaks about once a year after graphics driver updates, the fix usually being to set the projector to be either the primary display or secondary display (depends on graphics driver version).
