This command enables the 3D image handling and sync functionality in the controller.
For 3D inputs to the active video port, left (L) and right (R) eye frames are input on alternate controller input frames. 3D frame inputs can be received on V-by-One. The controller receives a L/R input sync signal (on a GPIO) to identify L vs. R input frames. For 3D synchronization, there are no words to be decoded from data received over V-by-One, or FPD-Link.
The controller stores left and right images as needed by 3D stereoscopic glasses. In these glasses, one eye sees a dark shudder while the other sees the DMD’s projected image. As images are loaded into the DMD, light from the left and right frames is sent sequentially to the screen. The controller outputs sync information to tell the glasses which image is left and which is right.
Frame rates accepted by the controller when using DLP Link are 100+/-2Hz and 120+/-2Hz.
When DLP Link is not used, the full range of controller input frame rates supported for non-3D applications is supported for 3D L/R frame sequential inputs. For example, the L/R frame sequential input can be 240Hz for a 1080p DMD when using a single controller.
