E.L.M.I. Is able to display stereoscopic images in real color.

Currently the stereoscopic images should be watched with a mirror glass ( same as used with chemical stereo formulas). The support for real 3D - Monitors (pol-shutter-technology) is in preparation and will be available, soon.

Following features are currently implemented:

• Zoom, rotate and drag the left and right half image without flicker (Open GL)
• 3D mice (SpacePilot) are supported.
• Support for forensic half image comparison
• Tool to remove misplaced ( by rotation and / or by vector ) halfimages.
• Stereo image manager for convenient loading of stereo half-image pairs.
• Annotation possible

Each stereoscopic image consists of two half images. The left one (seen by the left eye) and the right one (seen by the right eye). To load this pair of images dowto the database, a special stereo-image-pair dialog exists.

This dialog allows simple tracing of an image pair threw the file-system. With a small preview (practiced "stereo-image-freaks" simply catch the stereo-effect by "squinting" and therefore have a test for proper left-right image situation) the stereo-image pair is simply dragged by mouse to the database.
