Been discussing this further with the old man lol
Sony Panny and Samsung are behind shutter glass 3d these are the 3 best tv manufacturers in the world
Apparently there are 3 different lenticular formats in the war sky being one of them
The TV to view Skys offering will have to have polorizing filters built into the screen meaning A. Viewing angles are poorer B. the backlights will need to be brighter ergo more energy needed
From what I can assertain the shutter glass method would only require the mechanism that sends the information to the shutter glasses and a 100hz and above screen the rest is standard meaning the screens need only be say a grand at a guess. Yes you will need a new blu ray player and pvr but this can still be done under the 2.5 grand. Woopie doo LG are gonna be the first with a tv for 2 grand lol Hitachi to follow
Sony and Samsung are releasing their versions around the same time but they are using LED backlight models so early TVs are expected to be 3 grand but there will be cheaper models as led backlights are not obligatory for this tech. They are also releasing blu ray players at the same time
Panasonic demoed Avatar at there 3d shutter glasses expo and for me its where the movie industry goes that matters. Ok we could watch a bit of sport on Sky for 30 quid a month in 3d but id rather be able to watch movies and if shutter glasses win the movie scene Sky can go sing
Quote:
Though all the different manufacturers' sets will receive the Sky 3D broadcasts, there is no agreement on the technology used in the sets. While LG is adopting the cheap polarising dark glasses, Sony and Samsung are using active shutter technology.
