I could not find a direct answer to that on their site (which doesn't surprise me), but I think it works as follows:

The '3d stereo' drivers that you install from the accompanied CD, makes you video card draw the same image twice (one from a slightly different angle than the other). The glasses alternatively allow your right and eyes to see the image.

Combined the glasses allow your right eye to see the image from a slightly different angle than your left.

Your brain cannot detect these shutter-speeds the glasses and videocard use, so you just see a complete image in your right and left eye. They are combined to 'see' depth.

Hope this clears it up a little...
