Abstract: A stereo video microscope system (10), comprising: a stereo video microscope (11) having two output channels for providing stereo image data and including an internal lighting; a display unit (14) having two input channels for receiving and displaying stereo image data; and a control unit operably connected to the stereo video microscope (11) and the display unit (14) such that the control unit can control the operation of the stereo video microscope (11) and the display unit (14) and the flow of stereo image data between the two output channels of the stereo video microscope (11) and the two input channels of the display unit (14). In one embodiment the control unit is configured for performing an image rotation and/or exchanging the output channels such that the stereo image is always upright.

Abstract: An eyewear is described comprising two segmented look-through elements each comprising an upper and a lower segment, wherein the upper segments are provided with means to selectively direct an image to the left and/or to the right eye. Preferably, said means are configured as LCD shutter glasses, optically polarized glasses, red and green glasses or as display units. The two lower segments of the two look-through elements are preferably configured as normal glasses including a pair of magnifying glasses. The eyewear can be used in a variety of environments including, in particular, the medical field and industrial processes. Furthermore, a system is described comprising such an eyewear as well as a display device to be looked at by means of said eyewear.
