Remco,

Thank you for the web page. I have been making and projecting
stereoscopic images from POV-Ray for years. I use a vintage
(1949) TDC Vivid stereoscopic slide projector. One thing you
should know is that, since the late 1930's, the standard orientation
for the polarizing filters is opposing 45 degree angles..  / \, not -- |.
To learn more about 3D projection and the history of 3D look up
the book "Amazing 3-D" by Hal Morgan and Dan Summers
(Little, Brown 1982).
