3D safety information

Carefully read all of the following safety precautions before using the 3D passive glasses and 3D display.
WARNING! If you cannot see 3D content after you set up your 3D system, HP recommends that you
discontinue use. Consult a physician if you suspect a physical problem seeing stereoscopic 3D.
Photosensitive Epileptic Seizures—Some individuals may experience a seizure or other complications when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in 3D content. If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a physician before using the 3D passive glasses and 3D display. Even those without a personal family history of epilepsy or stroke may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause photosensitive epileptic seizures.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, immediately stop watching 3D content and consult a physician: altered vision, light-headedness, dizziness, involuntary movements such as eye or muscle twitching, convulsions, nausea, loss of awareness, confusion, cramps, and/or disorientation. Parents should monitor and ask their children if they have any of the above symptoms. Children and teenagers may be more likely than adults to experience these symptoms.
Do not watch 3D content when you feel sleepy, tired, or sick. Watching 3D with the 3D passive glasses for an extended period of time may cause a headache or fatigue. If you feel headache, fatigue, or dizziness, stop using the 3D passive glasses and rest.
Your vision can change to accommodate viewing through the 3D passive glasses. After removing the 3D passive glasses, wait several minutes before resuming regular activities.
Some 3D content may startle viewers. People who are pregnant, elderly, or epileptic, and those suffering from severe physical conditions are advised to avoid using the display's 3D functionality.
The vision of young children (especially children under the age of 6) is still under development. Consult your doctor (such as a pediatrician or eye doctor) before allowing young children to watch 3D video images or play 3D videos games. Parents or guardians should supervise young children to ensure they follow these recommendations.
Do not use the 3D passive glasses near water.
To prevent damage to the lenses, use caution when using the 3D passive glasses and properly store them when not in use. Do not use the 3D passive glasses if there is any sign of damage or cracking in the lenses.
The 3D passive glasses are not prescription eyewear, sunglasses, or protective goggles. To prevent personal injury, do not use the 3D passive glasses for any general eyewear purposes.
22 Chapter 5 Using 3D technology

Using the 3D passive glasses

Your 3D experience begins with active 3D content and the 3D passive glasses.
WARNING! Before using the 3D passive glasses, read
For optimal 3D viewing, you should be approximately 60 to 70 centimeters (24 to 28 inches) from the computer display. Depending on the viewing angle, the operational distance from the display can vary.
When watching 3D images, do not incline your head relative to the horizontal direction of the images.
In some cases, viewing objects in 3D stereo may cause disorientation and the objects may appear blurry. One possible reason is the reversal in the detection of the left and right frames in the specific application. For some applications, pressing the M key may reverse the stereo. By toggling between the displays for the left and right eyes, it may be possible to find the correct setting.
NOTE: Before using the 3D passive glasses, remove the clear protective film from both sides of the lenses
(select models only).
Your 3D passive glasses may look different than those shown below.
3D safety information on page 22.
1. Tracked glasses: eyewear that includes polarized lenses and small reflectors to tell the system where
your eyes are located
2. Clip-on glasses: tracking eyewear with clip-on polorize lenses
3. Follower glasses: eyewear without the reflectors. An observer can wear these and share your
experience without interfering with the tracking

Caring for the 3D passive glasses

NOTE: The 3D passive glasses are designed to fit over most standard prescription glasses.

Cleaning the 3D passive glasses

To remove smudges and lint, clean the 3D passive glasses with the cleaning cloth included with the 3D passive glasses or with a soft, damp, lint-free cloth. The cloth can be dampened with mild cleaning agents with less than 10% alcohol.
Using the 3D passive glasses 23
CAUTION: To prevent permanent damage to the 3D passive glasses:
Do not use paper-based towels because they can scratch the lenses.
Do not spray cleaning fluids or chemicals directly on the lenses.
Do not use ammonia-based cleaning products.

Handling the 3D passive glasses

The 3D passive glasses are durable but sensitive to physical pressure, and need to be handled with care. The 3D passive glasses should be held by the frame in order to avoid getting fingerprints on the lenses.
CAUTION: To prevent the lenses from cracking, never twist or rotate the 3D passive glasses.
