[Chimera-users] Auto-Stereo 3D

[Tom Goddard]

One of the 3D displays that do not use glasses is called Looking Glass.

Chimera does not work with it, but a friend (Tom Skillman) has one and said it is interesting.

However, any support for new technologies would be done as part of ChimeraX, https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/ <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/>, the Chimera successor.    With our limited resources, it's unlikely that we would implement anything soon, but we would welcome and assist a contributed ChimeraX bundle.

Those appear to be the only available long term solutions right now.  If you can find a 3D TV anymore, that would work too.
