About GeoBox 3D Processors
GeoBox 3D processors convert and reformat 3D video so a source in one 3D format can drive a display that expects another — and split, or demultiplex, a combined 3D stream into the left/right images a projector or monitor needs. Active 3D format conversion turns an input into side-by-side, top/bottom, or frame-sequential (sequential 3D) output, while 3D demultiplexing separates a packed 3D signal for passive and active 3D displays. These capabilities are built into GeoBox processors that also perform seamless switching, quad view, video wall control, or edge blending, so a single standalone unit handles 3D alongside its primary job.
Everything runs as a one-box solution: configuration is done over IR remote, an RS-232/Ethernet PC tool, or a built-in WebGUI, then runs 24/7 on dedicated hardware with no host computer in the signal path — and every unit is TAA compliant for simulation, medical, and specialized 3D installations.
Choosing the Right GeoBox 3D Processor
3D handling is built into three GeoBox processors, each pairing 3D with a different primary function. Choose by what the rest of the installation needs.
G901 — 3D format conversion + seamless switching: A 5×1 seamless 4K switcher and quad-view processor that adds active 3D format conversion with sequential 3D out. Choose the G901 when you need to convert a 3D source into the format a display requires and also switch or combine multiple sources on one screen. (Canonical: Multi-View Switchers & Splitters.)
G902 — 3D demultiplexing + video wall: A 2-channel 8K-in / 4K-out video wall controller and multi-viewer with a 4K 3D demultiplexer (no warping). Choose the G902 when a 3D signal must be demultiplexed as part of a video wall or multi-viewer setup. (Canonical: Video Wall Processors.)
G812 — 3D demultiplexing + edge blending & warping: A 2-channel edge blending processor and 3D demultiplexer that also warps, taking 4K2K input to 2048×1080 output. Choose the G812 when 3D demultiplexing is needed within a projector edge-blending and warping installation. (Canonical: Edge Blending.)
Key selection variable: the primary function the 3D handling attaches to. Switching/quad view → G901; video wall/multi-viewer → G902; projector blending & warping → G812.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a 3D processor do?
A 3D processor converts and reformats 3D video so a source in one 3D format can drive a display that expects a different one, and it can demultiplex — split — a combined 3D stream into the separate left and right images a projector or monitor needs. This lets mismatched 3D sources and displays work together in one system.
What is the difference between 3D format conversion and 3D demultiplexing?
3D format conversion changes the packing format — for example, turning an input into side-by-side, top/bottom, or frame-sequential output. 3D demultiplexing separates a packed 3D signal into its individual left and right images for the display. The G901 performs active format conversion; the G902 and G812 perform demultiplexing.
What 3D output formats are supported?
GeoBox 3D processors output common formats including side-by-side, top/bottom, and frame-sequential (sequential 3D), so the processor can match whatever a passive or active 3D display requires. The G901 provides active 3D format conversion with a sequential 3D output.
Which GeoBox 3D processor should I choose?
Choose the G901 when 3D conversion pairs with seamless switching or quad view, the G902 when demultiplexing is part of a video wall or multi-viewer, and the G812 when demultiplexing is needed within a projector edge-blending and warping setup. Each unit combines 3D handling with a different primary function.
Do GeoBox 3D processors need software or a PC, and are they TAA compliant?
No software or host PC is required — all 3D conversion and demultiplexing run in dedicated hardware, configured via IR remote, RS-232/Ethernet PC tool, or WebGUI and then left to run 24/7. Like the rest of the GeoBox line, these units are TAA compliant for government, simulation, and specialized 3D installations.
