3D TV Yenifer Maldonado

Features: 3D TV It is estimated that it will cost $2,500 A pair of battery-operated 3D glasses – $150 to $175 Two pair of 3D lenses $150.00

Increase sales It is expected to be ready this December All HD TVs are likely to include 3D in the future TV services providers are lining up to carry the 3D programming Satellite TV provider DTV says it will have 3D TV channels this June. It will also offer movies and events on demand in 3D Their goal is to announce its 3D offering in time for the holiday shopping season in the fall. The liquid crystal lenses in these Active Shutter glasses change from dark to light several hundreds of times per second while communicating wirelessly with the television set. The glasses will also be able to communicate with Samsung- branded Blue-ray players.

Problems Still need some improvements Too little content Distribution is scarce Technical kinks on the TVs still need to be worked out No software Glasses made for one manufacturer's TV won't work with a competitor’s The goal of the glasses is to work with every 3D display, from laptops to cinema Other issue that they are facing is that the glasses that work with the current version of “active” 3D TVs require crystal shutter glasses, which work by very quickly blocking each eye in sequence. The glasses, in addition to the liquid-crystal lenses, contain electronic and batteries, typically good for 80 or more hours. Another issue is that the 3D-ness of a 3D picture is different for different people. Ex: animated films actually have less of a 3D effect because they are designed for children's, whose eyes are set closer together than adults Some people are against this ideal because they don’t like wearing glasses when watching TV.

“Passive” 3D A more affordable 3D TV “passive” 3D doesn’t require battery powered glasses. Viewers can wear cheap glasses that many people are already wearing in theaters for 3D movies like “up” and “Avatar”. Instead of spending $150, these glasses cost only about $1 to $1.50 a piece. These TVs will be $500 to $1,000 more expensive than the active 3D TVs. It’s also still unclear when TV using passive 3D technology will hit the U.S market. reaction-3d-tvs/9742-1_ html?tag=mncol;txt
