We plan to equip a lecture room (for approximately 100 students) with a
stereographic projection system to smoothly and clearly display dynamic 3D
models of macromolecules. The students will wear passive (polarized)
glasses. The system should work "out of the box" with common Unix
crystallography software, and should respond fluidly as the molecules are
manipulated. Stability, clarity, and ease of use are of primary concern.  If
you have set up such a facility in the last year or so, and can share any
insights (LCD vs CRT technology, two projectors vs one), I would appreciate
hearing from you.
