A collaboration between the three big companies specialising in 3D to bring standardised glasses is now underway.
A statement from Sony announced that the “Full HD 3D Glasses initiative” was right on track, revealing that the companies involved were now working together to develop standard 3D glasses.
Back in August Samsung, Sony and Panasonic said that they would work together to bring a standard to active 3D glasses.
The standardisation of those would mean that everyone interested could have a special set instead of owning different glasses for every active 3D TV out there.
Sony told reporters in a statement that the “Initiative aims to achieve interoperability among any 3D active shutter products that are developed and manufactured using the Initiative’s technology and that bear a distinct logo designated by the Initiative.”
Put simply, the glasses will be designed to work with any 3D TV that uses active shutter technology.
It is unknown when the glasses will be available but many in the 3D community are hailing this collaboration as a successful step towards making 3D more accessible and attractive to the general public.
