3D technology is gaining momentum as more devices become 3D-ready and shipments of 3D TVs, laptops, and mobile devices increase. Glasses-free 3D is moving into the mainstream in 2011-2012 with new mobile and gaming devices being announced that feature this technology, such as the HTC Evo 3D phone. There is also a shift away from glasses-based 3D towards glasses-free displays. 3D Impact Media provides solutions for automated 2D to 3D conversion and universal 3D playback software, as well as 3D filter technologies for any display size.
2. 3D gaining Momentum!
“ When color came along in the 1930s, ten years later, people stopped making movies in black
and white. Why? Because we see in color,” Katzenberg said. “ We also see in 3D. I do think it's
more natural for us…” !
