Read the post, it says you don't need glasses

" ... managed to do both 2D and glasses-free 3D ... "]]>Jun 11th 2010 11:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/
I just received Nvidia's 3D vision kit. I thought it was going to be gimmicky and not all its cracked up to be. With or without glasses, I was COMPLETELY wrong, gaming in 3D is ridiculous. seriously ridiculous. And with the help of a simple script, you can convert 2d movies to 3d on the fly...outstanding...]]>Jun 11th 2010 11:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/Jun 11th 2010 12:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/
Agreed. It's not just a fad or a gimmick. 3D is a step towards future tech which will not go away. This is especially true for gaming in which 3D adds much more immersion to the experience.

Oh, and the price will inevitably fall, just as it did when LCDs were first released.

It would be great if there was a push for true 3D audio (binaural recordings). It would require headphones, but the effect is out of this world (beats the pants off of 'surround sound'). If you haven't listened to Binaural audio yet, check the link below, but you MUST USE HEADPHONES! Close your eyes. It sounds like you're in the room!

I can only imagine the immersion that an ultra-large 3D display with binaural audio would produce. Even cheesy horror movies would be down right frightening!

There is an open project to bring realtime 3D audio to gaming which should be cool when it becomes real. Together with 3D video, it's a completely different experience!]]>Jun 11th 2010 12:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/
Whoops! The project for 3D audio is:

that's pretty awesome, definitely sounds like your sitting next to those guys. I have seen some audio books recorded with the dummy head or Binaural in the past, always wondered why everything wasn't recorded that way! truly immersed in the sound, I can only imagine coupled with 3D what that would be like...+10 for the idea.

Totally! With blu-ray, it would be possible to include a Binaural Audio track, which would be a neat option for 3D movies!

I wonder when this tech is going to come to handheld phones?! ;)]]>Jun 11th 2010 1:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/Jun 11th 2010 11:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/Jun 11th 2010 11:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/
I was about to say, I spy with my Linux eye, UBUNTU! and it looks like 9.10 I think]]>Jun 11th 2010 1:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/
Just because the tech allows you to produce content for each eye in stereo, doesn't mean it *has* to.]]>Jun 11th 2010 12:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/Jun 11th 2010 12:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/True, but as the article mentions when displaying in 3D on an autostereographic display the resolution drops (because it's diverting half the pixels to one eye, half to the other). The difference here is that it gives the full resolution in areas that aren't showing a 3D image.]]>Jun 11th 2010 2:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/11/itris-display-manages-2d-and-3d-at-once-set-to-challenge-toshi/
