[vtkusers] VTK Stereo Rendering capability

[ELENA S SLOBOUNOV]

 Reena
 
I am running VTK in stereo on alienware monitor on (NVIDIA QUADRO 5800 - can be
other with 3-pin DIN and 3D vision compartanle )
Cable needs to be DVI-DVI.
see attached images for Nvidia control panel.
On Windows 7  only can run examples with iren->Initialize();iren->Start();



 
 
BAD NEWS:   (I ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO FIX THIS     PLEASE HELP   )
 
Without iren->start(); stereo works only for short time and the window goes
white... (same true for stereo projectors)
 
 
Try this extample wit loop modification:
C:\Users\demo\VTK\Examples\Tutorial\Step2\Cxx



int i;


int rotations = 0;


for (i = 0; i <= 360, rotations < 10 ; ++i)


{if(i == 360) { i = 0; rotations++;}


// render the image


renWin->Render();


// rotate the active camera by one degree


ren1->GetActiveCamera()->Azimuth( 1 );


}
