Q&A: is the ps3 3d upgrade compatible with the panasonic 3d hdtv?
Question by Adonian: is the ps3 3d upgrade compatible with the panasonic 3d hdtv?
I know this is probably a dumb question, but I have a PS3, and it is 3D capable (or will be with software update).
Panasonic gives a pair of glasses with their 3D HDTV’s, Samsung doesn’t.
WILL the PS3 work in 3D with ANY of the new 3D tv’s?
I don’t want to pay for the TV AND GLASSES separately, and besides I have seen both Samsung and Panasonic 3D systems, and the Panasonic looks better (and costs $ 500 less).

The PS3 will be compatible with all new 3D TVs.
The new 3D specification was a collaborative effort by a group called the Blu-Ray Disc Association which consists of dozens of major electronics manufacturers (e.g. Sony, Samsung, Panasonic, etc.), content producers and industry experts.
What this means is, there is one single finalized 3D standard upon which all companies have agreed upon and implemented so there is no need for consumers to worry about compatibility issues. Every 3D Blu-Ray player, set-top box and game console will work with every 3D TV regardless of the manufacturer.
The BDA 3D spec allows manufacturers to use different types of technologies for producing the 3D effect (e.g. shutter-glasses, polarized lenses, holographic projection etc). But in the end, whatever 3D display you’re using, it must be compliant with the specification and accept a standard 3D signal from whatever video source you connect it to.
As a side note, the universal HDMI 1.4 specification also implements new protocols that further extend support for digital 3D video transmission between 1.4/3D compliant devices.
