Based on stereoscopic projection principles, there are 3 widely used 3D display technologies and they are described as:
-
Anaglyph — red/green or red/blue images with glasses filtering out one color or the other;
-
Polarization — the technique used in cinemas where two images are projected with different polarizations, a silvered screen and polarized glasses. TV sets are capable of producing polarized light; they use interlaced displays for the left and right pictures, the even lines and the odd lines differently polarized [which effectively halves the vertical resolution in 3D mode];
-
Shutter Glasses — technique used by the new 3D televisions, where each alternating frame represents the left or right views.
There is also another way of watching 3D videos on VLC by creating it from the source code to finally build a VLC player that supports stereoscopic. To see the step-by-step procedure on how you can create it yourself, you may visit VideoLAN Wiki | SoC 2011/Stereoscopic Video.
