4. The followings are amateur’s solutions. First, you can use a normal laptop ( almost any laptop will work ), plus shutter glasses. For the LCD monitor most possibly polarized a degree, so you may need to search for a piece of cellophane for most laptop monitors but THERE ARE some LCD monitors don’t need. Secondly, you have another choice you can even use polarizer with your laptop while apply half-wave cellophane on half of you monitor. This may need some skills or experience though we can provide tutor for free.

So we recommend the first three options for business application. But if you want to play with stereo at home, we’d like to recommend the last option. You actually need almost naught additional pay to get stereo besides some of your time.
