to eventually locate some X-Specs 3D which worked at television
frequencies. I think they plugged into the Amiga joystick port, and just
liquid crystal shutters. The 3D modes were done on interlaced screens,
with the image for one eye drawn on the odd lines, and the image for the
other eye drawn on the even lines. The shutters would activate in synch
with the interlacing.
That's how the Evans and Sutherland 3-d glasses for the PS390 image
display unit worked. The control box for the glasses seems to be a simple
divide-by-2 flip-flop triggered off the vertical sync pulse. It operates
the 2 LCD shutters.
Do you, perchance, have technical manuals for E&S board set that is part of
VAXstation 8000 (or, for that matter, any docs on this VAXstation)? I hope
this box will be running NetBSD/vax soon, and getting X11R6 to run on it
would be good :)
