Hello John!
I think the maximum eye separation is on every type of monitor is 64-65 mm.
But if we see an anaglyph in original size. On the monitor, the analglyphs
are less, so the max separation must be less....
But if you want do a life-size separation on a monitor, you can do it, but
the concept is what you see on my attachment.
The nearest object separation is 65 mm, the farest point separation is
BIGGER. ( 1+1 degrees).
For the view of farest object, you dont need to diverg your eyes, enough to
see parallel because the fusion is working....But the eyes DONT like this
very much...:-)))
So the deviation and the separation isnt the same!!!!
Cheers: Imre
