3D-TV technology is becoming increasingly popular with each passing day. Due to the rise of the popular 3D feature films (namely, Pixar’s Up and James Cameron’s Avatar), began major TV manufacturers are developing three-dimensional home TV technology in 2009.
There are several ways that these producers use to create 3D images on a LCD TV, some are more expensive than others and some are more feasible than others. In this article, the three main methods of 3-D home theater technology, which will be used in the coming years.
Lenticular straight: This technology was pioneered by Philips, and is now available. TV sets that can use this technology without those funny glasses, the audience observed used in cinemas. These TVs use a lens, the different images that can send to each eye. That is, the left eye will see a completely different picture from the right eye, which (with your two eyes “of stereopsis, the process to see through the eyes, to be emulated depth). The only weakness in the lens is viewing, however, that a viewer must sit in a very special place in front of the TV. This means that few people will be able to see would be comfortable on the TV again because of the low angle.
Passive systems Glass: Hyundai is developing this type of LCD monitor, which are considered to allow both 2D and 3D images. To watch the 3-D images, viewers must wear the traditional glasses, with three observed dinemsional media. This technology is not new: The TV has two overlapping images and the glasses are polarized lenses. Each lens is so polarized that it can see only one of the two overlapping images. This technology is very feasible, and 40 to 50 inch LCD TV with this technology are currently being offered for sale.
Active glass systems: This system is very similar to the passive glass system, with the exception, not the TV while all the work, not the glasses. The glasses synchronized with the refresh rate of the TV, then they change the polarization of each lens so that the carriers of the glasses 3-D images. With this technology, people could be observed, a 2-D film comfortably at, the movie in 3-D will switch. This type of monitoring is being developed by Samsung and Mitsubishi, but the disadvantage is that the glasses could be very expensive. Some predict the glasses are upwards of $ 100.

Thanks for the post, 3D TVs are the future! The games are going to be really good but the downfall is people with eye problems may not be able to see the 3 dimensions and also cost factor. Can’t wait to see the 3D Tvs in action.
