[PyMOL] 3D/Stereoscopic hardware options in 2025?

[Blankenfeldt, W. <wul...@he...>]

Dear all,

I have just been shocked by our IT department that they will force us into migration to Win11 very soon. I know I am a dinosaur, but I still use and love my old nvidia Quadro/Asus/shutter glasses combi (over 10 years old) for hardware stereo viewing of protein structures under Win10. I am afraid that this will simply not work anymore once I have been upgraded, since nvdia has disabled hardware stereo in its drivers long time ago.

Personally, I cannot understand how modern structural biology can live without it and I would love to still be able view structures in 3D.

I know that the PyMol community is graphics- and tech-savvy, I am therefore asking if you know of any modern day hardware solution for 3D viewing in our favorite programs (PyMol, Coot ...).


Thank you in advance for your advice,


Wulf
