We recently had the pleasure to demo Sony’s new 3D HDTV’s at their New York City Head Quarters. Sony has come up with something truly extraordinary in capturing the technology that works similarly to the IMAX or REAL3D films we have already experienced in theaters. A pair of special glasses is still necessary to create the three dimensional effect but Sony's 3D head gear are thicker, more stylish and surprisingly comfortable to wear.
3D HDTV content is being produced not only through movies but for video games as well as cable TV, meaning it will become an absolute must-have for any modern entertainment center. The technology can be demoed by visiting the Sony Building at Madison Ave in New York City.
As with most new technologies, 3D HDTV’s will likely be out of most people’s price range for some time. Additionally, many people are predicting that viewing glasses will be a separate purchase and could be upwards of $200 per pair. If you have a large family or like to entertain, this could be a significant cost.
Although 3D HDTV’s will be pricey for many years to come, we can only imagine how TV, movies and video games will begin to adjust. Media viewing will be a completely different experience 10 years from now and video games will be more and more interactive.
