3D TV - Screw the Dow and the Election, This is REAL News!
« on: October 06, 2008, 02:26:06 PM »
J/k of course , but 3D TV appear to actually be feasible, though it'll be a few years yet:

Quote
LONDON, England (CNN) -- Picture this: you're sat down for the Football World Cup final, or a long-awaited sequel to the "Sex and the City" movie and you're watching all the action unfold in 3-D on your coffee table.

It sounds a lot like a wacky dream, but don't be surprised if within our lifetime you find yourself discarding your plasma and LCD sets in exchange for a holographic 3-D television that can put Cristiano Ronaldo in your living room or bring you face-to-face with life-sized versions of your gaming heroes.

The reason for renewed optimism in three-dimensional technology is a breakthrough in rewritable and erasable holographic systems made earlier this year by researchers at the University of Arizona.

Rest at: 3D Video Story



Go and tell the Spartans, O traveler passing by
That here, obedient to their law, we lie.

Anything worth shooting once is worth shooting at least twice.

According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

I'm still waiting for Smell-O-Vision.

I'm not sure why.

I'm waiting for them to make a holodeck like on Star Trek TNG.

Yeah, undoubtedly, though sports would probably be a big mover for it too.
