Frequently Asked Quentions
Visual Image Systems / Stereo 3D converter KCC-XPO

• Is it possible to apply this stereoscopic 3D visualization to any types of images including video image?
• No, the stereoscopic visualization is not possible for any data inputs other than those having two images for left and right eyes such as the data used in 3D CAD or 3D CG system. Even when they are input to XPO, the same data will be provided as left- and right-eye image and no stereoscopic visualization is realized. And XPO is designed to accept RGB inputs only and is not prepared to receive video signals.

• Why does it needs two projectors?
• It is designed to use polarized filter and polarized glasses, for which left- and right-eye images must be provided simultaneously. That is why two projectors are needed.

• I have ever seen the system that enables stereoscopic visualization with only one projector. Is that possible?
• Possible in the stereo shutter system that provides left- and right-eye images alternately.

• What is the difference from stereo shutter system?
• Stereo shutter glasses are relatively expensive, easily broken and very much likely to cause eyestrain.

• Is it possible to use any projector?
• Any projector may be used, but it must have additional functions such as lens shift and keystone correction to align two images.

• Is it possible to use any screen?
• For polarized filter and polarized glasses that are used, a silver screen is a must.

• Is it complex and difficult to align two images?
• Not difficult, but easy. There is an integral type also available that needs almost no such alignment.

• What is the maximum resolution for this stereoscopic visualization?
• Supports resolution from SXGA (XPO-2) to HD.

• Is it possible to adjust the degree that the image pops out toward a viewer?
• Possible to adjust it not with XPO but with 3D CAD or 3D CG image preparation method.

• My eyes hurt, and I feel sick.
• Stop using at once, and take a rest.
  As the intensity of feeling varies from individual to individual, it is suggested to adjust at first the parallax with software so that eyes are not overstrained.
