3D Experience



Whilst at the broadcast expo in Earls Court, I came across a 3D, which used the use of 2 cameras which would act like the left and right eye whilst capturing the images, this allows it to get more perspective on the item that they are filming. I found this interesting as it looks as if this could be the future of television. I thought this could be a good broadcast development especially for things such as sport, because as a viewer it would seem as if you were in on the action of the game, to view the 3D footage you have to wear 3D glasses which use a liquid crystal shutter to help make the image 3D. Whilst asking about this product I was given the opportunity to test it out, so i put the glasses on and watched the television screen, the images did come out well in 3D but they weren't very clear I feel that they will have to develop this further in order to justify people paying lots of money to view it.
