this I can’t do, and I am not _certain_ that crossing one’s eyes for a long time is a great idea :). I have wondered about the Apple virtual reality glasses, or any such, which by definition can display stereo images. That, if anything, would be immersive. But expensive.

I went very old school (as in 1970s—1980s) and use side by side either with mirror glasses that I put on my face or indeed by making a double mirror system like we had at Yale with the ps2. Rather than having a finely machined device with anodised black aluminium and glass mirrors, I used cardboard and Mylar. It also works :) Adrian Sent from my iPhone On 27 Feb 2025, at 10:49, Pedro Matias <mat...@itqb.unl.pt<mailto:mat...@itqb.unl.pt>> wrote: Hi Wulf, We never got our NVIDIA 3D to work with Windows 10, only with Windows 7. The Windows advantage is that the graphics cards are much cheaper than those for Linux. I believe there is a NVIDIA 3D Vision standalone driver that may work in Windows 11. Alternatively, my suggestion would be to use a PC disconnected from the internal institute network and keep running Windows 10 on it. File transfer would be a bit of an hassle but workable. Good luck & best regards, Pedro On 27/02/2025 07:05, Blankenfeldt, Wulf wrote: Dear all, I have just been shocked by our IT department’s announcement that they will force us into migration to Win11 very soon. I know I am a dinosaur, but I still use and love my old nvidia Quadro/Asus/shutter glasses combi (over 10 years old) for hardware stereo viewing of protein structures under Win10. I am afraid that this will simply not work anymore once I have been upgraded, since nvdia has disabled hardware stereo in its drivers long time ago. Personally, I cannot understand how modern structural biology can live without it and I would love to still be able view structures in “real” 3D. I know that the ccp4 community is graphics- and tech-savvy, I am therefore asking if you know of any modern day and established/sustainable hardware solution for 3D viewing in our favorite programs (Coot, PyMol, …).
