In response to Mike Goss at Merit: The CrystalEyes/StereoView glasses have a
BRIGHT mode ( rear switch, right side) that opens both eyes & stops
shuttering.
Thus you can look at another monitor without "beat bars".

The IR transmitter has a very wide dispaersion beam, nearly 180 degs. but 
the glasses have a narrow acceptance angle, only 20-30 degrees, so they
only "see" the monitor that you're looking at. The IR emitters have a HI/LOW
switch to provide a range of about 4'/10' to allow fairly close monitors
without
syncronizing them. Still, if you prefer the ZScreen approach, we intend to
continue them until nobody wants them anymore. Take your pick!!
