iZ3D is an advanced video monitor from Neurok Optics that is capable of displaying 3D images into-screen and out-of-screen using polarization to break 3D visual content into left and right viewpoints. The monitor has a special 17" LCD flat panel display that connects to two outputs from NVIDIA graphics cards, using the twin DVI outputs that are present in newer cards, or by simultaneously using both the DVI and VGA outputs in older cards (see schematic).
A key component of the system is its software, which determines from the 3D content which perspective to feed to each output in the graphics card. The display has a resolution of 1280 x 1024, and a viewing angle of 140 / 130, which allows the images to appear properly in 3D from across the room. To see the output in 3D, users wear polarized eyeware like a normal pair of sunglasses. Because the glasses can be worn for a long time without discomfort, the company is touting its system as the best way to experience games in 3D. Users can select from three types of glasses
today, and in the future, the company plans to offer more stylish choices, as well as game-oriented helmets and other gadgets. Currently, the software supports DirectX, which means that it should properly display any Windows-based 3D application.
