opengl-dlp-stereo: Library and example for using DLP stereo in OpenGL

[ graphics, library, mit, program ] [ Propose Tags ]

This package contains functions for rendering 3D stereo using DLP 3-D Ready Sync projectors and active-shutter stereo glasses. It also includes a sample application (see <https://youtu.be/l3rZbMB2XjM>) and notes regarding hardware setup for DLP. In particular, note that this technique does not require a graphics card that supports GL_STEREO. This package also works with VR systems such as Google Cardboard <https://www.google.com/get/cardboard/>.

Functions for using DLP stereo with 3-D Ready Sync projectors and OpenGL

This Haskell package contains functions for rendering 3D stereo using DLP 3-D Ready Sync projectors and active-shutter stereo glasses. It also includes a sample application and notes regarding hardware setup for DLP. In particular, note that this technique does not require a graphics card that supports GL_STEREO.

The code conforms to the specification <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bino-list/2013-03/pdfz6rW7jUrgI.pdf> and is based on the implementation for the stereo movie viewer Bino <http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/bino.git/tree/src/video_output.cpp?id=bino-1.6.1#n1389>.

Please report issues at <https://bwbush.atlassian.net/projects/HOGLDLP/issues/>.

Skeletal example illustrating the use of frame-sequential DLP

main :: IO ()
main = do
  _ <- getArgsAndInitialize
  initialDisplayMode $= [WithDepthBuffer, DoubleBuffered]
  _ <- createWindow \"DLP Stereo OpenGL Example\"
  depthFunc $= Just Less 
  idleCallback $= Just (postRedisplay Nothing)
  -- Use frame-sequential DLP encoding.
  dlpDisplayCallback $= def {dlpEncoding = FrameSequential, doDisplay = display}
  mainLoop

display :: DlpDisplayCallback
display eye = do
  -- Shift the view slightly, depending on for which eye to draw.
  translate $ Vector3 (if eye == LeftDlp then -0.05 else 0.05 :: GLfloat) 0 0 
  -- All of the rendering actions go here.
  renderPrimitive . . .
