Panasonic, Samsung, Sony and XpanD have been a pact agreed for the development of a universal 3d-glasses-standard. The Full HD Glasses Initiative, which covers both 3d-glasses sync via ir or via bluetooth.
With the agreement for a universal 3d glasses are now the main tv manufacturers in their sets use active 3d glasses, under one umbrella raised. The Full HD Glasses Initiative must have active 3d-glasses on the basis of the new standard with all the 3d tv’s of the four television manufacturers can be used. The organization is responsible for the development of the universal 3d-brilstandaard and the grant of the license to third parties, including the three manufacturers.
The consortium hopes that the cooperation, the sale of 3d-related products to promote. Last year tv manufacturers big on 3d capabilities, but consumers were still not hot for 3d. The cause thereof is sought in a limited supply and the limited quality of 3d movies, the higher price of 3dtv’s, the price of 3d glasses which are only on one brand 3d tv’s could be used, and crosstalk.
The first universal ir/rf 3d glasses are available from mid-2012. This will be compatible with the active-3d tv’s of 2011 of the three manufacturers. Panasonic, Samsung and Sony think that the frame sequential technology of active 3d, the best 3d image quality, because each eye per unit of time a 1080p image presented.
In the list is missing a number of names, including LG, Philips and Toshiba. LG put exclusively on passive 3d and has the new lcd models are no tvs on the basis of active 3d technology. Philips and Toshiba each have a line of passive 3d tvs, but also offer still tvs based on active 3d technology. For the passive 3d technology of LG, each eye only half of the number of lines of a 1080p image, though LG now also developed technology to increase to 1080i.
In the new standard are also the protocols taken by Panasonic and XpanD in an earlier initiative, are developed. These last two companies decided in march to work on a universal brilstandaard with the name M-3DI. This name is due to expire.
