Stereoscopic 3D is the fad in today’s world, with several new TV models using this technology. And, the bug has spread to smartphones as well. South Korean electronics giant LG announced, it’s unveiling of LG Optimus 3D smartphone on Feb. 14 at the Mobile World Congress event in Europe.
Hollywood is pinning its hopes on 3D as a technology that will revive interest in watching studio fare in theatres. Likewise, smartphone makers like LG see it as an additional feature that might help differentiate their brand in a highly competitive marketplace. And, consumer interest in 3D outside the cineplex is far from proven.
In a statement made by the LG officials, “full 3D experience to consumers will be available right in the palm of their hands,”
The company says it addresses the lack of 3D content with a unique experience. The phone will also have a dual-lens camera that can record 3D images as well.
The LG phone will not require users to wear clunky 3D glasses to see images in 3D. The phone will also have high-definition multimedia interface connectors so that you can display the 3D images on a bigger screen.
So far, glasses-free 3D on a TV is a bust. It just doesn’t look that good. But it’s not as hard to make good-quality 3D imagery on a small smartphone screen. The question remains whether people really want to watch 3D on a tiny screen?
