Toshiba releases 3D TV without glasses

by on Oct.07, 2010, under News

There’s some good news and some bad news for those of you who are waiting for a 3D TV that doesn’t require glasses.  Toshiba is releasing three sizes of 3D TV’s that fit the bill, a 12 inch, a 20 inch, and a massive 56 inch.  The bad news is that they only plan to release the TV’s in Japan at this time.  There is no release date for the United States or anywhere outside of Japan.  While this doesn’t mean that it won’t happen, there is no plan for it currently.

The good news is that the technology is not only available, it is advanced enough to be released to the public.  3D TV without glasses is far from ideal yet.  There is a narrow viewing angle to get the 3D effect.  Likewise you must sit closer to the tv than you might normally.  Nevertheless, the technology is out there and will only improve with time.  Some of you will remember that flat screen tv’s had the same problem in early days.  If you tried to watch from anything other than almost straight on, you had what looked like a faded screen.  By the time that this is released outside of Japan it will likely be a second generation model that has improved the viewing angle and made it better for all.

When can I see Avatar 3D at home?

by on Jun.25, 2010, under Questions

There is no official release date for the 3D version of Avatar.  Rumors have it being released in early 2011 but this could change at any time.  We’ll keep looking for news and will let you know when anything becomes official.

Of course you can currently by the 2D version at just about any store that sells DVD’s.  There is a special edition that is slated to be released in late 2010, most likely for Christmas.  Don’t be confused when you see this being advertised before Thanksgiving.  Unless things change, this will only be a special edition/extended edition of the movie.  The producers of this movie plan to get as much money as they can from it and there will be a third release of the movie that will be in 3D just like you saw in the theaters.

If you’re a big 3D movie fan and can’t wait to experience them over and over again at home, you probably want to know when the hit 3D movies are coming out.  Unfortunately these releases have been slower than we would like but the wait is for more people to own equipment capable of watching the DVD’s in 3D.  Like many things you can expect a slew of releases around Christmas time so hang in there.  Here’s the latest that we know about:

Monsters vs. Aliens 3D, now available for purchase in a Samsung bundle  (no word on a general release however)
Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, to be released in April 2010 (haven’t seen this one yet, so no clue about an actual release)
