stereoscopic display ??
(OP)
Someone was telling me about a display where you have 2 monitors,each displaying a slightly different viewpoint, which, if you go slightly cross-eyed, gives the illusion of 3D display, it's supposedly available for solidworks, does anyone else know of this and if NX could do it??





RE: stereoscopic display ??
NX/Teamcenter supports this with the proper graphics card and display set up. Generally these require larger workstations (not practical for laptops) which can accommodate the special graphics cards and interface to the IR devices. If you're running NX on a Stereo enabled system, you control this capability by going to...
Preferences -> Visualization -> Special Effects
...and select the button labeled 'Stereo' (which is grayed-out when running on a system that is NOT stereo enabled). There is also an extensive section in the NX User Documentation covering this (do a search on 'stereo' and will find several references).
Here's a case study showing how Fiat Motors is using this technology leveraging Siemens PLM Software products.

Here are a couple of links to some of the hardware vendors involved in this technology:
