'3D Without Glasses' Tech Improving, But Needs Work

Given all the 3D hype lately, one of the things Michael J. Miller wanted to see at the SID show this week were displays that did 3D without special glasses. There are a number of different "autostereoscopic" solutions out there, at various stages of development.

This has nothing to do with the Xbox 360 or PS3.

3m optical solution sounds great and so simple for handheld gaming.

Hideo_Kojima5825d ago

handhelds because no one holds a handhelds sideways so you only need a 60 degree viewing angel which can already be done.

Who cares if the guy next to you sees a blurry double image?

/not sarcasm

rexus123455825d ago

but the viewer also must remain at a set distance from the screen, I can imagine people with long or short arms might now be very comfortable holding the device at the exact right distance.
Samsung's holographic display sounds more promising.

SpoonyRedMage5825d ago

The 3DS will most likely use Sharp screens. They are making some new screens that are both 3D and Touch and around 3.5 inches so perfect for Nintendo's next handheld. Also they include the ability to turn 3D off, which Iwata said the 3DS will be capable of, and also have alternate orientation(Book mode). Seems to good to be true.

...and as pointed out a small viewing angle isn't an issue on a handheld.

gameslowdown5825d ago

this has been around for ages, since last december I think, i don't think the've gotten anywhere with it yet, post about it when they do though :)

jjesso19935825d ago

Well they will have to have the feature to turn 3d off for the people blind in one eye. I tihnk they will but not for long time at the momment its only vieweble from straight view lets just see what the future holds I just want to see 3ds at e3.

3D Without Glasses...would be nice

CobraKai5825d ago

Nothing more uncomfortable than putting 3d glasses over your glasses. Once this glassless 3d tech gets perfected then I'd jump aboard the 3d bandwagon

cayal5825d ago

My Dad got a 3D TV (cos he needs to have every latest gadget) and it's not too bad with glasses over glasses. I could do without it.

But I do like the 3D, it's good with sporting TV.

cayal5825d ago

It's a Samsung, but don't know the model (not at home at the moment).

D4RkNIKON5825d ago

This is why I don't want to buy a 3DTV yet.

EasySMX D05 review

You can get Hall effect controllers slightly cheaper, but you'd struggle to find as feature-rich a package without some heavy, heavy sales.

I fail to see how this is AI shhhhlllloooop. Looking at the different games they showed, this has made many of them look far better.

isarai_lee46d ago (Edited 46d ago )

It's AI slop because it ignores the artists intent and changes the details ESPECIALLY when it comes to character faces. The scariest part of it is introducing it as the next stage of DLSS, a feature where the current iteration already has controversy surrounding it and for quite a lot of games cannot be fully disabled. So reasonably the precident is already set for what path this could take, and it's not good

blacktiger46d ago

In case you didn't watch the video then let me point just one part. It overrides the lighting. Then the question of what is the point of ray tracing cost and so on. Many of the lighting deletes shadow, including shadow on the face like eyes even chin.

Chard46d ago

Why stop at art when it comes to human input - why not just have AI play the game for us, remove human input altogether

theshizer46d ago

If you don’t like it, just don’t enable it. Personally I think it looks great from the videos I have seen.

isarai_lee46d ago

And what about when you can't? Cause there's plenty of games where you cannot fully disable dlss already, i mean we're well into an era where it's a major crutch for developers to cover up their cut corners, why would this be any different?

blacktiger46d ago

You are playing with people's money and allow Nvidia to scam you.

In case you didn't watch the video then let me point just one part. It overrides the lighting. Then the question of what is the point of ray tracing cost. This is all lie to raise the cost of the graphic card.

Andrew33646d ago

Making characters look more realistic not ok because we want the developer to decide on how the game was intended to look. - Internet

Change entire game through mods thus changing how the developers intended the game to be is ok. - Internet

isarai_lee46d ago

Something consumers can do to a product after they have purchased it, entirely optional and can always be undone with a fresh install

VS

The leading gaming hardware manufacturer making this the next iteration of the main AA/Upscaling technique that is heavily relied upod by modern devs and is not optional in most games.

Not at all the same but nice try

jwillj2k446d ago

At the moment you need 2 5090’s just to get an image on the screen so this is all vaporware until proven otherwise.

Andrew33646d ago

The good news is you can just not use it as well.

Christopher46d ago

It's all about choice in the end. But, I would say that calling it 'more realistic' is quite a stretch. It looks like AI art, and that's rarely realistic.

Urrakia3446d ago

All the comments I see are reminding me of how we got to the current state of gaming when microtransactions were first introduced: "It's completely optional guys, we promise! If you don't like it just don't buy it!"

I think we all know how that ended up.

Popsicle46d ago (Edited 46d ago )

I had the same exact thought the first time this was brought up in a separate article about a week ago. Took me straight back to the conversations surrounding “horse armor.” Just don’t buy it they said. Years later, many IPs I previously enjoyed are so infected with monetization schemes that I don’t even consider purchasing them anymore.

DLSS 5 and the like are the same thing wrapped in a different package. History rhymes but many of us never learn from it.

blacktiger46d ago

Biggest Scam. Overrides lighting and shadow. So why keep Ray tracing? It's all a scam to raise graphic card. We now see Nvidia with Microsoft downturn anything against them. Sony is next!
