An interesting piece of hardware just hit the market, and it seems
that it might easily be adapted for the Amiga. Stereo Tek 3D glasses,
made by LC Technologies ("a venture of Tektronix of Beaverton OR"),
use liquid crystal shutters in lightweight glasses to present alternate
screen frames to the right and left eyes, repectively, giving 3d
perspective in full color when used with the right software. This product
plugs into the cartridge port of the Atari ST in order to synchronize
the frame rate. It supports both the 60hz and 70hz atari monitors.
Price is only $150, extra glasses $100. Call 800-443-0100.

Anyway, this seems like something that could very easily be adapted to
the Amiga. Anyone out there know what kind of hardware hacks might be
necessary?
