NVIDIA announced it is no longer supporting 3D Vision. What does this mean? Without 3D Vision, will NVIDIA Quadro GPUs still support OpenGL Quad-buffered Stereo? Will NVIDIA resolve issues or provide user support related to 3D Vision in future drivers? Will existing third party emitters and glasses work with drivers that don’t support 3D Vision? I currently use a 3D Vision display for desktop stereo, what are some of my options moving forward for alternative hardware?

NVIDIA announced it is no longer supporting 3D Vision. What does this mean?

Hardware: NVIDIA is no longer selling the 3D Vision emitters and glasses.

Drivers: R418 graphics drivers will be the last driver to contain the 3D Vision driver package. The R418 branch will be supported until January 2020.

Without 3D Vision, will NVIDIA Quadro GPUs still support OpenGL Quad-buffered Stereo?

Absolutely YES. OpenGL Quad-buffered Stereo is not affected by changes to the 3D Vision driver.

Will NVIDIA resolve issues or provide user support related to 3D Vision in future drivers?

NVIDIA will no longer actively update the 3D Vision package after the R418 driver branch. R418 branch will be supported until January 2020

For critical security issues we will provide an update if needed.

Will existing third party emitters and glasses work with drivers that don’t support 3D Vision?

All third party stereo emitters and glasses that use the 3 pin mini-din connector will continue to work with Quadro graphics boards that support the optional stereo bracket.

If you are interested in a support of a particular vendor hardware, please send an email to [email protected]

I currently use a 3D Vision display for desktop stereo, what are some of my options moving forward for alternative hardware?

We are working with Volfoni and several display manufacturers to enable active stereo on several flat panels with the same quality of experience provided by 3D Vision.
