3D Televisions Coming Next Year

Posted by: dragonblogger  //  Category: Technology

3D-TV3D Televisions will be on the market in the next few months and the question remains “Do you think 3D Televisions will be as big as 1080p HD was to 480p or Color was to Black and White television? Many companies are riding on the 3D bandwagon and hoping that people want to see their television shows and movies “pop out” of their television when they watch the content. I too enjoy the 3D aspect but have some issues with the fact that the technology either requires shutter glasses (Sony) or Polarized glasses (JVC) both of which can cause eye strain and headaches in people using them.

Games, Movies and Sports are the real winners behind 3D television where you could watch a thrown ball seem to fly out of the TV into your living room or video game weapons seem to reach out and be more realistic. Clearly movies in theaters have already jumped on the 3D bandwagon with Monsters Vs Aliens, UP and several other films released this year in 3D and 2D simultaneously.

I personally don’t know if I want to be having to sit and wear glasses when watching televisions, I think it would be better if there were a way for a TV to have 2 screens and projectors that could allow for 3D perception without the need for wearing glasses. Or better yet some sort of projection system that can create the images out of light like R2 D2 does in Star Wars when projecting Princess Leia to Luke Skywalker.

Clearly 3D will eventually be the future but I don’t think it will be anything but a novelty item for the next few years as people still struggle to keep up with technology and adopt Blu Ray and 1080p televisions en masse. Lets face it, the broadcast networks will need a ton of more bandwith to leverage 3D programming, and the local networks just barely cut over to HD broadcasting.

But this is just my view, what are your thoughts about 3D televisions? Will they be a huge hit or a flop next year and in 2011?

Take my poll or leave me a comment:

    Sounds like quite a leap for mankind. I heard about this when I first found out about those NVidia 3D glasses that enable you to play games that support it in 3D. Looks like you’re going to be needing a 120+ Hz refresh rate TV or monitor for that and these new LGs and whatnot have like 200Hz.
    That is just crazy! Can’t wait to get my first one in some 10 years maybe :D
    Here in Croatia, a 53 inch, 200Hz refresh rate LG no edge monitor costs about $4,000!

    Is that in USD or in Croatian currency? I know the new Samsung LCD TV’s are 3D ready and can support it when the players start coming out for it.

    If they can find a way to make it so the 3D doesn’t cause the eye strains it typically causes and can really add to television I would love to see it continue on.

    The glasses sound like a pain. If not for the glasses I would love it. 3D scares the crap out of some folks, makes them feel like they are losing control. I have also seen it cause nausea along with the headaches.

    Of course the price will be prohibitive for a while, then it will become more reasonable.

    The technology will be there one day. when it works, looks good and doesn’t cost an arm and a leg, I will buy one. Not before, though.

    The TV’s don’t cost much more and the glasses probably around a hundred dollars I would thing, but I agree about the eye strain.
