 What they are claiming in their glib and informationless blurb is
 technically impossible at this stage -- that they have a computer program
 than can examine images, determine spatial relationships, and generate
 stereo pairs "on the fly" at 30 frames per second. Despite the testimony of
 the impressed eyewitness, it sounds very much as though they are pulling
 the same stunt, or some slight variation of it, as the other theater in New
 England (I think it was) where a video image was split and projected
 vertically offset through two polarized projectors. >>
