AMD Quad-Buffer SDK

This SDK allows developers to access AMD’s Quad-Buffer API to support stereoscopic 3D displays that require frame sequential or frame packed format input using custom DirectX 9,10, and 11 extensions.

The API outlined in this SDK can be used for showing DirectX games in stereoscopic 3D, video playback applications and viewing 3D pictures. This API also abstracts the underlying display interface technology.

This means the developer doesn’t have to code differently for DisplayPort, HDMI, DVI, or VGA 3D displays since the transport mechanism of the stereo image pairs is transparent to the application.

This API is supported by the following GPUs: AMD Radeon HD 5000 series, AMD Radeon HD 6000 series. Also note that AMD Quad-Buffer SDK supports DirectX versions 9, 10 and 11 as well.
