I have an imagination, so I can visualize things in 3D without needing to see them in 3D.

I considered it a novelty when it first came out in the 50's, and I think currently it is a novelty also. Just like in the 50's it will die out when the fad passes to something else.

In industry and science, there is a need for 3d imagery, but not in the entertainment industry.

Moin,

I´m all in for it. I consider it the future of cinema. I´ve been seeing 'Avatar' several times and some 3d animation movies in 3D. The important point is, it has to be the 'Real3D' technique, using differently polarized light for each eye. I agree that the red/green glasses are b*llsh*t. They only provide two different layers, two pictures separated by different color information at a slight offset. This is not what 3D is supposed to be. But the ploarizing technique uses film material captured with two cameras. Thus your brain is indeed tricked into interpreting the seen images as 3D. But we´ll have to live with the glasses issue, which I personally don´t mind at the slightest. There are only two other ways I can imagine to achieve 3D. First, you´ll have to keep a fixed distance to a screen that displays different pictures for both eyes, the other would be to implant the picture directly into your mind. Anyway, I´m a big fan of the new techniques and am eagerly awaiting any costumer market solutions.

Regards,
DD
