3D HDTV (WOWvx)
Philips have been working on 3D HDTV that creates 3D images in HD quality using a technology called WOWvx which does not require the use of glasses to see the special 3D effects. The TV uses advanced signal-processing and a special lens technology to produce the 3D effects.
Philips hopes to launch a consumer 3D HDTV in a few years. After test users have stated that “Golf balls and butterflies jump off the screen,” the article states.
This technology has great advantages over the other / older 3D technologies, as the no glasses means no fuss, just normal TV viewing with the extra thrill of 3D. One problem in the future might be getting TV stations to broadcast this format, as it has taken many years for them to accept HDTV.
