This document provides an overview of 3D television technology. It discusses the history of 3D, from early experiments in the late 19th century to the first 3D movies in the 1920s. The document also examines different types of 3D glasses and how 3D TV works. While 3D TV gained popularity in the 2000s, some studies found health issues from prolonged 3D viewing and support declined. However, the future of 3D TV may include glasses-free options and continued improvements to the technology.
