Once we hit that installation point a wizard starts. You pop in the driver CD, install the graphics card driver after a reboot, an installation process will automatically install the 3D stereo driver. NVIDIA tried hard to make things as simple as they can be, and definitely succeeded. NVIDIA's developers will probably like to crucify me for the simplicity here, as there is much more involved. This is the most simple explanation I can get you guys to understand what is happening. The end result as explained too often now, is the perception of depth, which is even configurable with the little scroll wheel on the IR transmitter. What the 3D Stereo driver from NVIDIA is doing is tracking that DirectX 3D data from the game where it will be processed and passed on to the GeForce driver to create two different images to be rendered with a visual offset to each of your eyes. Here pixels can be culled correctly and drawn, when required. Since we have that data at hand that information allows the 3D rendering engine (game engine) to decide what objects are in front of other objects. So in a game every object being displayed is in a 3D environment and as such has depth information coupled with it (X,Y,Z axis). In very simple and layman's wording let me try and explain it: Well, the software just needs a different approach. But why are games not supported straight out of the box like, say SLI functionality you ask. We'll run through some of the games we tested on the next pages by the way. The newest titles might not be supported. This is something you need to factor in though. Out of all the titles we tested, all of them worked, except for a trial run of Prototype, which was not yet supported in the drivers.
Now you do not need to look at the game boxes for a 3D logo or anything, NVIDIA on a regular basis (we hope) will release a new driver supporting the latest titles. in fact well over 350 games work with 3D Vision technology. First off, a lot of games are currently already supported. On the software side of things NVIDIA worked really hard to make the installation and overall usage really simple and user-friendly.
