Connecting to a computer or laptop:

1. Install the USB driver
2. Install the S3D Player
3. Press "Settings" button for open setup
4. Configure: "Display 3D customization"
5. Adjust glasses: "S3D Glasses"
6. Download 3D photo
7. Install 3D games

1. Via USB cable
Connect the glasses to the PC via USB cable. Press any button on the glasses to wake up. Only for 3D movies and photos.

2. Bluetooth USB
Attach the BT USB dongle to the computer. Enable dongle support in the 3SD Player. Press any button on the glasses to connect. Only for 3D movies and photos.

3. S3D Emitter
Attach the USB Emitter to the computer. Select the Emitter support in the 3SD Player. Press any button on the glasses to connect. Full 3D support: games, movie, photo.

S3D USB Emitter

Connecting to an Android smartphone:
This mode supports 3D viewing on your mobile phone. Like small IMAX 3D cinema, size as the phone screen. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth, plug in the glasses. To watch 3D movies, you will additionally need use the 3D SBS player for Android.


Regarding Apple devices
We will not support any Apple devices due to the company's hostile policy attitude towards softwares creators. Let them write it for themselves on their own, sorry...

Try our S3D Player. The programme allows to display 3D SBS without using NVIDIA stereo driver. You can configure and set up your computer to work with 3D with the highest possible quality.

The S3D Player currently shows only pictures, video output under testing mode. After configuring, you can use other programs for video. For example NVIDIA 3D Vision Video Player.

The glasses do not fit all displays. You should look at the following parameters: display pixels speed and display polarisation. The switching speed of the display pixels should be faster than 4ms. The screen polarisation should be linear. The polarisation angle must be +45deg to match the glasses exactly. If the angle is slightly off, you will have to tilt your head slightly or for perfect viewing re-glue the film on the glasses yourself.
This is described in detail here: Choose Display

For example, matching the screen polarisation of laptop Razer Blade: v15, v16, v17 is 100% perfect. For the LG 27GK750F game display, the match is 75%.

Controls

The glasses have 4 control buttons.
To device turn On, press any button.
To turn Off, press and hold the button "Power"
To activate Bluetooth, press "Power" and hold for a moment until the LED blinks.

1. To switch the img perspective R/L, briefly press "Power"
2. For Player Pause or Continue, briefly press button "A"
3. To adjust the img Offset-, press button "B"
4. To adjust the img Offset+, press button "C"

Quick Start

To quickly connect and set up the glasses, follow these steps. According to the description above, install the drivers and update the firmware. Open the player application, resize the window to about 1/4 of the display screen, and start the image slideshow. Then, open the 3D settings panel. Depending on how you want to connect the glasses, select and activate the appropriate communication interface. If you are connecting via a USB dongle, make sure to enable Bluetooth on the dongle. Press any button on the glasses to turn them on. Check if the connection with the glasses is established by shift any control in the glasses settings panel. A green LED Rx confirmation should blink on the glasses.

Next, in the glasses control panel, click the 'Set to Default' button. Then, slowly adjust the 'Offset' slider until the 3D image appears. By adjusting the other controls, try to achieve the best possible image quality. In any unclear situations or freezes, press 'Device Reset' or press the 'Set to Default'. If you're having trouble with something. Ask a question in the IT support group on Facebook. The link to the group is at the bottom of the page.

Customization

Due to the varying capabilities and performance of video hardware, it is difficult to determine the best glasses settings in advance. To achieve good image stability, select the filter parameters yourself based on the specifics of your computer. Open the glasses control panel and choose the connection type. In this example, we are using an S3D emitter connection.

Emitter Settings


In the player's settings panel, you see the detected Emitter. Turn on the Bluetooth transceiver and set the glasses model. The Infrared Transmitter should preferably be disabled unless you additionally use IR sync glasses.

Glasses Settings


By manipulating this setting you can find the most stable picture possible. Unfortunately, at this time we have not finalized the memorization of settings for different modes. If you change the connection method, you need to adjust them. Usually, a single setting does not require any further changes.

Capture Filter Bandwidth
If your PC hardware is old and slow, rendering may cause delays and frame drops. To prevent hard image jitter, this filter ignores and discards deviations above the selected threshold. In the beginning to establish the broadest window.

Filter Strenght
Determines the smoothing level for dynamically calculating the instantaneous frame rate. The higher the smoothing, the slower the glasses respond to FPS changes on the computer.

Lock Speed
Limits the speed of score adjustments to fast FPS spikes. So that there is no loss of synchronization. If you set a very low response, the glasses may lose synchronization in case of significant FPS deviations.

Regulator
The parameter P determines the degree of response of the glasses autotuning system to frame rate deviation. Larger values make the autotune faster, but do not set it too high, as oscillation will occur. Parameter I determines the accuracy of the auto-tuning. Parameter D significantly accelerates the exit to the point of optimal capture. But on old equipment if you have FPS jitter it is better do not to use it, and set to 0. Otherwise the system will not be able to adjust.

Reset to Default
To restore factory settings, press the Reset to Default button. This will return all parameters to their initial state.

Firmware Update

The softwares inside S3D Glasses are sufficiently complex and there are still plenty of hidden bugs. We periodically find and fix them, and improve functionality. You can download the new firmware file yourself. Use the DFU updater application to fill file to device.

To update firmware do the following steps:
1. Disconnect the Glasses from the computer
2. Close Player. Open DFU application
3. Connect the Glasses to computer
4. Click the line with the device name
5. Select the firmware by the File button
6. Press the Prog button and wait for done
7. Launch new firmware by clicking Run


In rare cases, the firmware may program with an errors and the glasses hang up. The error may occur if you pull out the cable during programming. To exit from freeze and force jump to the update mode, press and hold the B+C buttons. If that doesn't work either, briefly short the battery with tweezers and then connect the USB power cable.

Add Android support:
For already released old glasses. To upgrade to latest versions, which support new Android and Windows players. If your current version is below v1.5, the first step is should install the Migration cleanup. After that, install the latest firmware. New update will not be able to boot up without completing the cleanup first.

For game developers:
You can add 3D to your application. We provide an API and simple code examples. Send a request with a description of your planned use case, and we will provide a matching example. To get access to the repository, please also include your GitHub ID.
