Yes, stereographic is coming at us quickly. Before it is fully refined, there will be a lot of psuedo 3d stuff on the market. This monitor appears to work using a polarizing filter that overlays the screen. It needs to line up with every other line of the monitors horizontal scan. It probably works rather well if you are in the sweet spot. At a distance of 24″, you have about 4.5 inches of vertical window. In other words, if you move your head more than 2.25 inches up or down, it’s no longer 3D. The manufacturer recommends a viewing distance of 12-24 inches. On a 22 inch monitor that is WAY too close for comfort.

For day to day checking of stereo depth you can use grey anaglyphic techniques on any monitor. This will give you 3d depth that is very useful for compositing or setting up a shot. For checking a film there is no substitute for seeing it projected. Screen size and the distance the viewer is observing from the screen are big factors in composing stereo. These fancy screens are nice, but gimmicky, as they don’t do anything that cannot be archived through other methods better.
