00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:05.799
well I recently did a little video guide on how to install your NVIDIA GeForce

00:00:04.359 --> 00:00:11.440
drivers today I'm going to be doing a quick little guide on how to set up

00:00:08.360 --> 00:00:12.880
NVIDIA stereoscopic 3D so the first

00:00:11.440 --> 00:00:17.359
thing I'm going to do is adjust my white balance so you're actually going to be

00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:23.160
able to read dialogue boxes that are on the screen aha there we go okay so the

00:00:21.080 --> 00:00:26.760
first thing we've got here is the NVIDIA control panel so we're going to go into

00:00:24.599 --> 00:00:30.800
the NVIDIA control panel and we're going to discover something

00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:40.120
when it loads yeah we are going to discover that I do not actually have any

00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:41.920
options in here at all for 3D Vision or

00:00:40.120 --> 00:00:47.559
stereoscopic 3D is what it would be under so the default drivers from NVIDIA

00:00:45.039 --> 00:00:52.320
actually do not include 3D Vision drivers because I mean the reality of it

00:00:49.440 --> 00:00:57.320
is 99% of people don't need it so you go to NVIDIA.com make sure you're always

00:00:55.559 --> 00:01:01.039
downloading the latest drivers for 3D Vision because it is quite complicated

00:00:59.239 --> 00:01:05.680
and they are making updates as often as they can so we select Windows 7 64bit

00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:12.640
the same procedure as with your driver installation search and download it's a

00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:14.159
300 megabyte full driver CD package and

00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:20.479
since I've already downloaded it I'm going to go ahead and just run it so yes

00:01:17.320 --> 00:01:23.680
I would like to run that particular

00:01:20.479 --> 00:01:26.159
program go ahead and install the 3D

00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:31.040
Vision driver so we click next I do not need the stereoscopic 3D viewer

00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:34.960
personally but if you want it it by all means okay so it only takes a little

00:01:33.119 --> 00:01:39.479
while to install actually and then the configuration

00:01:37.240 --> 00:01:43.040
process is quite simple first of all you need to be wearing your I'm going to

00:01:41.360 --> 00:01:48.280
just turn this thing you need to be wearing your 3D Vision

00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:51.040
glasses okay next you need to make sure

00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:55.520
that your IR emitter is plugged in via USB to the back of your computer so you

00:01:53.880 --> 00:02:01.920
should see a dim green light and I'm going to show you the difference so okay

00:01:57.360 --> 00:02:03.840
go ahead and finish okay y all right so

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:08.399
now we go into the NVIDIA control panel again and there's going to be an option

00:02:05.399 --> 00:02:08.399
that we didn't have

00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:17.760
before oh yeah your glasses should also be charged they charge via USB and the

00:02:14.760 --> 00:02:19.959
uh power button is here so they should

00:02:17.760 --> 00:02:27.800
be charged and on so we do not have an option for ah

00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:30.160
here it is set up stereoscopic 3D so go

00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:35.360
ahead and click there and then we're going to use the setup wizard because

00:02:32.640 --> 00:02:38.959
just clicking enable stereoscopic 3D uh might not configure everything properly

00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:42.040
I don't know I haven't tried but the wizard takes only a couple minutes to

00:02:40.519 --> 00:02:46.760
run and walks you through some of the stuff that you need to know about 3D

00:02:44.519 --> 00:02:50.239
Vision before you use it so first of all it gives you a little checklist for all

00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:54.879
the things that you need to do for either 3D Vision or 3D Vision discover

00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:59.000
which is a a red blue Ana

00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:02.200
anaglyphic yeah I think it's anaglyphic anyway either way it's red blue lens

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:07.239
system rather than the active shutter glasses so we go ahead and click next

00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:11.000
okay this shows us how to connect the IR emitter which I have already connected

00:03:08.799 --> 00:03:17.599
USB to the back of the computer it's quite straightforward okay we click

00:03:14.640 --> 00:03:22.280
next and then you select the kind of gaming configuration that you'll be

00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:23.959
using so single gaming computer in a

00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:28.519
room running 3D Vision where there are not other consumer IR devices such as TV

00:03:26.239 --> 00:03:31.920
remote control at the same time okay then you've got if you've got

00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:35.439
interfering things in the room and then there's also multiple gaming computers

00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:39.159
in a land gaming environment all running 3D Vision so that's where there would be

00:03:37.239 --> 00:03:44.599
a ton of interference because the IR emitter is actually just blasting out IR

00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:50.120
signals that tell the uh the shutter glasses when to when to shut off when to

00:03:48.519 --> 00:03:57.159
when to blank the frame for one eye versus the other okay so the next step

00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:59.239
now yeah you can't tell but my glasses

00:03:57.159 --> 00:04:02.599
have actually gone quite dark so this is the step the glasses turn on so I'm

00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:07.840
going to go ahead and let you look through the lens you see how dark the

00:04:04.799 --> 00:04:10.040
screen is compared to there it's because

00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:14.599
it's blocking out every other frame the monitor is running at its full 120 HZ it

00:04:12.799 --> 00:04:19.840
is a 3D Vision ready monitor I hope I mentioned that you need one of those and

00:04:16.799 --> 00:04:21.759
so press the onl look for a steady green

00:04:19.840 --> 00:04:26.040
light on the glasses as well as on the emter so that's the bright green light

00:04:23.919 --> 00:04:29.840
that I didn't show you before and there's no steady green light on those

00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:33.639
for whatever reason but they're on trust me they're on okay so I'm going to go

00:04:31.520 --> 00:04:39.639
ahead and put these back on okay so now that that's all figured

00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:44.360
out our glasses are on the emitter is on we are seeing that the image is dark

00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:48.440
this one so if I look close you see you can see both a green hexagon and a blue

00:04:47.320 --> 00:04:54.960
triangle but I'm going to show you something interesting if you look through the right lens you see only a

00:04:52.880 --> 00:05:00.880
blue triangle if you look through the left lens you see only a green hexagon

00:04:58.280 --> 00:05:05.120
so this is how 3D Vision Works there you can see both of them so it's blocking

00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:09.639
every other frame so on the monitor every other frame is displaying that

00:05:07.320 --> 00:05:13.919
green hexagon and every other frame is displaying the blue triangle so it's

00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:17.840
blocking it so my left eye sees the left image my right eye sees the Right image

00:05:15.919 --> 00:05:21.360
so for this part it says look through the right eye with the left eye closed

00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:24.520
so we do that okay select what you see we see a blue triangle if you look

00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:28.759
through the left eye with the right eye closed

00:05:26.960 --> 00:05:35.000
we see a green hexagon so I'm going to go ahead and select those options blue

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:36.520
triangle green hexagon excellent uh this

00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:40.199
one do I notice a flicker in your peripheral vision okay this helps you

00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:45.280
configure it if you um if you're in a European area where they have 50 HZ

00:05:42.520 --> 00:05:48.199
power or a variety of other things so no I do not notice a flicker in my

00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:52.520
peripheral vision I go ahead and click next this is the last one verify that

00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:55.800
you are able to view stereoscopic 3D content so here I'm going to show you

00:05:54.360 --> 00:05:59.919
something interesting too select which of the following you see one with a box

00:05:58.280 --> 00:06:03.919
popping out or one without a box box popping out right now you see one

00:06:01.840 --> 00:06:07.479
without a box popping out but let's see what happens if we do this yeah that's

00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:11.479
not going to work okay hold on if I hold these far enough away will I be able to

00:06:09.919 --> 00:06:16.479
see the box at all this might be

00:06:13.880 --> 00:06:20.400
tricky hold on okay so what I need is I need the glasses as close as possible to

00:06:18.919 --> 00:06:26.280
where the Box pops up no this isn't going to work okay well you're going to have to trust me then uh I can see it

00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:30.240
this way right here also I have red and understand the

00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:33.840
health and safety information this is one of the reasons I would definitely

00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:37.800
recommend uh running the wizard so that you can make sure that you read and

00:06:35.400 --> 00:06:41.520
understand that I click next and then that's it I don't want to

00:06:40.080 --> 00:06:46.560
create a shortcut for that I don't want to launch a slideshow of 3D games then

00:06:43.440 --> 00:06:48.199
you click finish so once that's done you

00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:53.120
can see that the NVIDIA control panel has gone ahead and configured itself you

00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:57.120
can uh you can change the maximum depth you can also do that with the SC uh

00:06:55.240 --> 00:07:01.160
slider wheel on the back of the IR emitter when you're in game so you don't

00:06:59.039 --> 00:07:05.280
have to change the the maximum depth on the driver level you can set your

00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:10.000
keyboard shortcuts and you can test stereoscopic 3D it launches this

00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:15.000
horrible horrible thing here I'll show you this is so old here it's pretty

00:07:13.919 --> 00:07:19.080
funny actually it's the NVIDIA logo popping

00:07:17.479 --> 00:07:22.240
out at you it actually looks kind of funky on one monitor but when you

00:07:20.599 --> 00:07:29.520
stretch this thing over three monitors it's just just horrible this pink and

00:07:24.960 --> 00:07:31.240
yellow and black and gray thing anyway

00:07:29.520 --> 00:07:36.039
3D Vision is working on this system thank you for checking out my 3D Vision

00:07:33.599 --> 00:07:40.280
setup guide don't forget to subscribe to lus Tech

00:07:37.840 --> 00:07:45.479
tips oh yeah last thing make sure you have a video card that supports 3D

00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:47.280
Vision um here's your first hint if

00:07:45.479 --> 00:07:55.639
you're running one of these it does not support 3D Vision ATI currently does not

00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:57.960
have a stereoscopic 3D uh technology so

00:07:55.639 --> 00:08:03.080
you must be using an NVIDIA card 8800 series or higher in order to take

00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:03.080
advantage of 3D Vision
