Future of 3D gaming and media *spawn

Limited use now, but may be interesting in a few years time. 3D Bloggie can be used as a webcam also. They can be used to upload videos to Youtube 3D service.

I believe Toshiba also has a laptop with stereoscopic 3D screen and 3D webcam.

Sony Vaio S only supports glasses free 3D screen. LG has passive 3D (Cinema3D) screen. Acer uses nVidia's 3D Vision.

 

I bought my 3D monitor for $700+. Will be glad to drop $800 for this thing.

However, I think Sony should make this into a platform instead of a closed product. Should let partners add accessories like head tracker, mounted mini-camera, and other sensors. I don't mind a wireless video streaming service too.

Week full of 3D craptiness , well , IMO, sad days for a technology, that was military grade/ CRT / DLP privilege just a while ago.
-No hard feelings with Bethesda, they were sorta right in their presumption, what do we expect.

At least QLED is on track.

with glassesfree magic screens, you need an additional set of 8x8 2d pixels for usable "3d" resolution, a friend is a big fan, used to talk about lightfield synthesis and stuff. Based on my experience with shutters, I don't think that parallel spatial thing any cooler than directional backlights at high frequency , but whatever.

nVidia 3D Vision doesn't work in OpenGL.

 

it used to work 5 years, 10 years ago.

 

Yep Doom 3 in 3D on a projector was the 'killer experience' for 3D gaming at one time.

 

It's launched in Japan. More than 100 queued up. Queue length was 7 hours:

For the stereoscopic effect

 

That would be the user lying down sideway. ^_^

 

Saw a GAF user impression. They had a private presentation for the (game ?) industry:

EDIT: There are a few more posts by the same guy in the thread.

 

If Sony is successful with this I expect clones to quickly start eroding the price.

 

Oh the bane of Sony. ^_^

I hope they make it into a platform of HMD plugins. I'm also interested in pass-through mode where I can see the outside world via a 3D camera. Too bad the battery life will be gone in no time. May the optics can help somehow ?

 

I'd like to see transparent, augmented reality glasses combined with a motion tracker so I could relive all my favourite zombie invasions in the comfort of my own home. Aww if the guys behind Amnesia made a game for it...

Coop augmented reality Amnesia with my missus would just be the best thing ever.
