I don't get it...]]>Mar 15th 2010 5:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/
This initiative by AMD is about stereoscopic 3D imaging... in other words, using 2 images (1 for each eye) on a screen to give you the sense of depth when viewed with the proper glasses. (like the movie Avatar)

Engadget is simply using the generic "3D" terminology which becomes very confusing. To most people, 3D simply means polygon-based graphics (like Call of Duty, Halo, Need for Speed and pretty much every other game made in the past 5+ years).

"3D" is a term used in the way the game art is made.... "Stereo 3D" is a term used in the way a game is viewed. There is a pretty big difference between the two. It is especially annoying because AMD themselves are clearly using "Stereo 3D" in their press literature to keep things clear, but then that get's ignored when posted here.

(and yes, I realize that I am being very anal about this, but having worked in the 3D industry for many years, I think it would be nice to get the phrasing correct now that stereoscopic 3D is just starting to enter consumer's radar screens)]]>Mar 15th 2010 6:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/Mar 16th 2010 12:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/
Wow, thanks for the informed response! I would have replied earlier if Engadget's "E-Mail me when someone replies to this comment" feature actually worked.

I'll be sure to use the correct terminology myself in the future]]>Mar 23rd 2010 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/
It doesn't seem to matter though... there have been a few posts about Stereo 3D here and there and no one wants to use the proper terminology. I should continue to bitch them out, but I know it's not going to matter.

For me, this is like back in the day when not-so-computer literate people would use the term "harddrive" when they simply meant to say computer. For a site that purports to being tech-minded, it's a shame they can't get the wording correct. ]]>Mar 23rd 2010 9:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/nVIDIA had real stereo 3D almost 10 years ago before pissing off all the stereo 3D community, and it way more Open than any of these mega-corporations marketing tricks we al hear about lately since last year and the Avatar movie and last CES.
nVIDIA and AMD should release real Open stereo 3D software for use with standard head mounted displays in Linux instead of these DRM filled, sheep crowd brain washing gimmicks.]]>Mar 16th 2010 12:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/
So any time you hear the word "Open" you think it should run perfectly on linux?

Sounds like you're kinda brainwashed.

Go look up some definitions of what "Open" and "Open Source" is.]]>Mar 16th 2010 6:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/Mar 16th 2010 6:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/amd-lays-out-open-stereo-3d-initiative-at-gdc/Mar 17th 2010 3:05AM
