I need to have the cameras take photos at the exact same time or the 3D data gets very fuzzy.
Recently, the USB-remote code for the original CHDK has been rewritten and may also work though I am not aware of any synch tests.

And the code that releases the "sync" when the USB power is removed is the same too. So I would be very surprised to find out that sync accuracy has changed. And as its pretty much the same code as what's in SDM, I would expect that to be the same too.
What David is referring to is the time taken between the release of the USB remote and the image being taken.
Now what I can not figure out is how do you send a signal from the pc to the camera. There must be some small script or something to trigger the "get_usb_power" that you need to run from the PC's end?
This should work, should it not?
