is a software system to control the Aeroscope. It controls the scanning of the slides, provides a database for storage of images, and additionally gives you complete manual control over the Aeroscope.

The used file format to store images is the MPO-format (multi picture object), which can be opened by a fair number of software tools. Nevertheless, image processing is not supported by most of these software tools. MPO-images consist of two single images (one for the left and one for the right eye). Most image processing tools, fail in processing both images at the same time. 

This is where ShadeShed 3D starts. The software allows image processing operations such as:

• resizing and cropping 
• rotation  

• adjusting contrast and lightness 
• correction of white balance 
• flipping horizontally and vertically 
• adding annotations at specific distances 

In addition to these operations, some special operations can be executed: 

• create SBS (side-by-side) images, to use a 3D TV for displaying 3D images 
• switch left and right position of both images 
• preview on an additional 3D monitor 
• perform a slide show 
• use the slide sorter to structure the images
