Stereo 3D Display vs Cloning Display options
The ThirdEye X2 MR Glasses displays have two modes of operation,
cloning, and stereo to switch between 2D and 3D content.
Cloning Mode
Cloning mode is the default mode. In cloning mode, the left and right
display show the same 720p HD display (1280x720). When you look
through the glasses, it will seem like a single display to your brain. This
mode is useful for running standard applications that may have already
been developed. For example, in Android studio, a developer would design
for a display size of 1280x720. This is the most common view of the
displays.
Stereo 3D Mode
In stereo mode, the left and right display contents are different. There is a
single unified display buffer at the Android level that is 2560x720. If a
developer draws content on the first 0px – 1280px section, it will show up
in the left eye, and if they draw on the second 1280px – 2560px section it
will appear in the right eye. This feature enables a developer to draw
completely different content to the left and right eye. For example, an
application that wanted to render stereoscopic 3D content could use this to
display the left and right views.
To switch between Cloning and Stereo Mode go to “Settings” -> “Display”
and you will be able to switch in there. If an app is already developed for
