That's different. What Lance and myself are talking about works like
this: you put on a pair of glasses with a single LCD plate in front of
each eye. These are not displays, they only block light when needed.
So the computer displays left eye and right eye images full-screen,
and blocks the appropriate eye's view simultaneously. So your left eye
only sees the left eye picture and the right eye, accordingly. No eye
crossing or whatever. The result is a full-screed 3D image or
animation (like in Descent) without eye strain nor headache. Sure
looks cool!
