It is several years that NVidia, ahead of its time, tried to impose its 3D display system on computers. Up to now, they did not have much success until the advent of 3D television gave it a new kick of life.
For this purpose, they decided an important thing, to modify their software " 3DTV Play software" to be compatible with other glasses that theirs. After all, this is good sense, it is hard to imagine the people wanting to see in 3D on their television set and their computer needing to provide a different pair of glasses for each product, especially as these glasses have a considerable cost, since that the standard selected implies that they have two LCD screens being used to alternatively hide the vision in each eye, the whole being connected, without wires, to the television set to ensure perfect synchronization.
This raises elsewhere another aspect of the arrival of 3D television, the war of the glasses, because there will be one of them. Many manufacturers are waiting to produce them, knowing that their number will be X time higher than that of the television set, since each televiewer is obliged to have a pair, and this market could well be profitable. If one takes, for example, the first 3D television sets from Samsung that must arrive soon, they should be sold without these famous glasses which will cost between 100 and 150€ according to their size and of the fact that it have batteries. Sony will also make this choice to sell these glasses separately and this will inflate in an impressive way the profits…
A last thing worries us on their subject. We do not know if there exists a standard of communication between the television sets and the glasses or if each manufacturer will have his own standard. If this is the case, the customers will be caught and will not be able to use generic products that would not hesitate to be offered at lower tariffs.
