Amazing New 3D Technology Video From Japan

Amazing new 3D technology from Japan.  Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better.

Nvidia 3DTV Software Allows For Desktop and Laptop Owners to Connect to 3D Television

Windows 7 or Vista easily will connect to your easily. Nvidia has announced the release of its new 3DTV Play software, which allows owners of desktops and laptops that use Nvidia graphics to connect their Windows Vista or Windows 7 systems to new 3D televisions. This looks like yet another branch of Nvidia’s 3D ever-expanding 3D initiative, which already encompasses 3D Vision (released last year) and 3D Vision Surround (due for release sometime this year).

3DTV Play can be run on any desktop or laptop with video hardware based on Nvidia GeForce GPUs, and that also has an HDMI or a DVI connector. It includes full support for all HDMI 1.4–compatible 3D TVs, and can display in 1080p24, 720p60, or 720p50 3D formats.

The 3DTV Play software will be available later this spring, and will be sold separately. Pricing has not yet been officially announced, but Nvidia expects it to be $39.99. According to an Nvidia statement, the software will also be made available for free (via a future software update) to current 3D Vision customers.

3D Gaming by NVIDIA and Panasonic

NVIDIA wants to show you how awesome 3D video games and movies can be, and it has teamed up with Panasonic for a US-wide road tour to display case the latest in 3D home the stage technology. As part of the tour, you’ll be able to test out PCs organization NVIDIA’s 3DTV Play software with Panasonic’s 3D HDTVs and close glasses (what a mouthful!).

3DTV Play let you play 3D games or watch 3D video from your PC, and it mechanism with well-matched GeForce GPUs, over 400 games out of the box, and supports 3D TVs with HDMI 1.4, with resolution up to 1080p at 24 frames per second. 3DTV Play isn’t now for gaming; it lets you watch 3D movies, view 3D images, and even look through 3D Web sites. There’s no release date yet for the app, but NVIDIA says it’ll be “available later this spring” for $39.99. Though, if you’re an NVIDIA 3D Vision owner, the software’s free.

While current PCs with NVIDIA GeForce cards will support 3DTV Play, 3D gaming requires twice the frameratw of 2D gaming, so newer, faster machines will provide the best experience for 3D. An NVIDIA rep told Gizmodo that the demo rigs used for some press previews were “inside a 3.5-foot-tall tower with a plexiglass side to show off the water cooling inside,” which I can only guess will not be cheap.

Are Consumers Ready for a 3D TV Upgrade?

With the buzz surrounding 3D TV, one has to wonder if consumers are really ready for an upgrade. After already spending thousands within the last five years to upgrade to flat screen technology, is the majority really willing to pull out their wallets again? Furthermore, is 3D TV going to be worth the premium price that TV manufacturers will charge for it?

Looking back on what consumers typically spent on televisions, you soon realize that TV manufacturers have really been raking it in. It was only until the introduction of flat screen technology that encouraged TV manufacturers to lower their prices on their CRT models. Until then, prices held steady throughout the years.

With the introduction of 3D TV we might expect the price of regular flat screen televisions to come down dramatically, much like what happened with the price of CRT televisions. But with flat screen televisions already at historically low prices, it’s unlikely that they have any room to bring prices down any further. A 50” HDTV LCD, flat screen television sold anywhere from $4000 to $6000 per unit only five years ago. That same television could easily be bought for under $1000 today! With dramatic price drops like these, you can see that there is little room left for price dropping.

We can expect the price of a 3DTV to cost well above what a typical flat screen, HDTV currently costs. You’ll also require a 3D TV player as well, at least until broadcasters are capable of streaming it over cable. With limited content available and the requirement to purchase specialized equipment, it’s clear that most consumers won’t be upgrading to 3D TV anytime soon.

3D TV Technology Overview Explained

Single-view displays as opposed to 3D displays, project only one stereo pair at a time. Multi-view displays either use head-tracking to change the view depending of the viewing angle, or simultaneously project multiple independent views of a scene for multiple viewers (automultiscopic); such multiple views can be created on-the-fly using the 2D plus depth format.

Various other display techniques have been described, such as holography, volumetric display and the Pulfrich effect, that was used by Doctor Who for Dimensions in Time in 1993, by 3rd Rock From The Sun in 1997, and by the Discovery Channel’s Shark Week in 2000, among others. Real-Time 3D TV (Youtube video) is essentially a form of autostereoscopic display.

Stereoscopy is most widely accepted method for capturing and delivering 3D video. It involves capturing stereo pairs in a two-view setup, with cameras mounted side by side, and separated by the same distance as between a person’s pupils. Convincing scene depth effects can only be achieved with exactly the same viewing screen size/distance ratio as intended at the moment of capture/rendering, or the projected image will have impossible separation and convergence angles, especially for close-up objects.

Multi-view capture uses arrays of many cameras to capture a 3D scene through multiple independent video streams. Plenoptic cameras, which capture the light field of a scene, can also be used to capture multiple views with a single main lens[4]. Depending on the camera setup, the resulting views can either be displayed on multi-view displays, or passed for further image processing.

After capture, stereo or multi-view image data can be processed to extract 2D plus depth information for each view, effectively creating a device-independent representation of the original 3D scene. This data can be used to aid inter-view image compression or to generate stereoscopic pairs for multiple different view angles and screen sizes.

2D plus depth processing can be used to recreate 3D scenes even from a single view and convert legacy film and video material to a 3D look, though a convincing effect is harder to achieve and the resulting image will likely look like a cardboard miniature.

3D TV Technology Surpasses HDTV

3D TV is cutting edge technology that will change the way you watch television.  In the world of science, researchers are always looking to the future. While consumers are still scratching their heads and trying to decide which high-definition television (HDTV) to buy for their home theatres, researchers in laboratories around the world are already working to develop technologies that would surpass HDTV.

What will be the next step in the evolution of television? While there are labs in Japan that are working on super high-definition displays, the next true milestone is expected to be much more significant than simply improving image sharpness and color. Researchers believe the next coup in the advancement of television will involve the addition of a third dimension. This monumental step can be likened to the addition of color to black-and-white television displays. In the future, stereoscopic or three-dimensional (3D-TV) displays will allow viewers to immerse themselves inside a world of objects that are separated in depth, far beyond the screen’s surface. Best of all, you won’t need those restrictive red and blue glasses that our parents or grandparents wore to enjoy 3D in the movie theatre.

Research into 3D-TV has been underway since the mid 90s. Initial research projects addressed the important issue of determining the perceptual benefits that 3D would bring. More recently, the focus has shifted to human visual characteristics that could be exploited for applications in video coding, transmission, storage and display of 3D program material.
