It also means around 100 Chinese online games and over 670 PC games can be played in 3D 'off the shelf' even though they have not been specifically developed for 3D.
Under the deal DDD will continue to receive quarterly royalties based on the volume of monitors shipped.
Chief Executive Chris Yewdall said the first year of DDD's partnership with AOC had proved to be very successful.
"TriDef 3D [technology] continues its rapid expansion in the 3D market with over one million PC licenses shipped in the first half of this year," he said.
