Configure autostereoscopic display with ID that is not one of: 05F, 05D, S1D, 05G

OSV installers have different lists of built-in config files for 3d displays:

OSV versionIDs of 3d displays whose configuration files are built into the installer

titleConfigure autostereoscopic display with another ID

To configure new autostereoscopic display that is not integrated into the OSV installer (05F, 05D, S1D, 05G) you should receive from 3d-global company:

  1. the viewmap bitmap file;
  2. integer number of native views;
  3. registry file 

Then:

  1. Install OSV with any autostereoscopic configuration (i.e. 13" S1D)
  2. Run the registry file that is provided by 3d-global.
  3. Copy the viewmap bitmap file to the "%PROGRAMDATA%\OctoNus Software\Digital Microscope" folder.
  4. Open the file "%PROGRAMDATA%\OctoNus Software\Digital Microscope\autostereoscopic_display.xml" and change:
    1. NativeViewsNumber to the value provided by 3d-global
    2. IndexMap: sum of zeros and ones count should be equal to NativeViewsNumber * AngleDenominator. So, if NativeViewsNumber is 6, we specify IndexMap as 15 zeros and 15 ones. Change IndexMap in two places in this config.
    3. ViewMapPath: change its value to the new viewmap filename without path.

If the stereo on your workstation is configured incorrectly, you will not be able to see a volumetric image via the Oсtonus Stereo Viewer app: ghosting will be very noticeable, left and right pictures will not be combined into one 3D image etc.

  4. Open 3D Global View Optimizer. Check with the app if there is head tracking when you are at the right distance from the autostereoscopic display (eyes about 70 cm from the screen):

    Also, please check these parameters:

    2. HQ mode is enabled
    3. Camera is connected
