[vtkusers] Rendering a photograph in stereo

[Jacob Klos]

I have a rather simple question that I have not been able to find a 
solution to, so I am hoping someone here can help.  A bit about the 
problem...  I have two photographs of a physical scene taken with two 
digital cameras from a left and right eye perspective (call them left.png 
and right.png).  I also have experimental data (in the form of cone plots) 
that I want overlay onto these photos.  Finally, I want to be able to view 
the scene (photos and overlaid data) in stereo mode using Crystal Eyes.

Rendering the experimental data in stereo using cone plots is 
trivial.  Also, doing an overlay of these data with an image from only one 
eye is fairly trivial, but I have not found a way to implement a stereo 
image.  My question is...  given a left and right eye photograph, how do I 
render the photographs in stereo?  It seems like this should be possible in 
vtk, but I am at a loss, please help.
