Samsung 3D TV
Ever since the movie Avatar came out people have been talking about 3d TV. A TV that is 3D ready can be viewed in both 2D and 3D. LCD shutter glasses must be used to view 3D TV. The 3D ready tv tells the shutter glasses which eye should be seeing the image which creates a stereoscopic image.
3D ready TVs usually support HDMI 1.4 and a minimum refresh rate of 120Hz. As of January of this year Major electronics makers such as Samsung and Mitsubishi have released the first 3D ready TV sets utilizing Texas Instruments, DLP technology.Samsung 3D tv model UN55C7000 was release in late February of this year.
The entertainment industry is moving things toward a common standard for all 3D technology. Some of the inconsistencies being worked on involve frame 3D glasses, frame rate, bandwidth, recording formats and blu-ray compatibility. In April 2010 The Masters Tournament will be broadcast in 3D on DirectTV and Comcast networks.
