Hi,

I have just read the "3D-Displays" part of this website.

I wonder if the following could be done:

Why not build a LCD-Display with 2 different LCD-Layers and make them orthogonally polarized? This would create an absolutely perfect 3D-image working together with some cheap filter-glasses.

The only thing I fear is that the above layer would be a filter to the under layer: Is there someone who could say something about it?

The approach would be similar to Vres's passive polarization system mentioned on this site, but without the problem that half of the lines get lost. Anyway, I do not think this system would create any ghosting, like the author of the "3D-Displays" part of this website suggests, because each eye should be unable to see the other eye's image.

Yes, a stack of two LCD's will be nothing but a mess, because the top layer will filter the bottom layer.
However, it is possible to make a two-layer LCD monitor with 3D capability. The way to do it is described in a famous patent "Flat Panel Three-Dimensional Display Unit" by Johnson et al (US patent 6,181,303).
So far nobody succeeded to make such a display becuase of serious technical problems.
