RealD to ZScreen for HDTVs, bringing cheap 3D glasses for fans

Most who have seen their favorite content in 3D have seen the light, but still find it hard to look past the glasses. Any 3D glasses are worse than no glasses at all, but expensive 3D glasses make even less sense to most.
reald pro 3d
So while all the consumer 3DTV glasses so far have been of the expensive active shutter variety (which keeps the price of the TVs more in line with the 2D versions), RealD announced at the 3D entertainment summit that it would license its ZScreen technology (pictured above) to 3DTV manufacturers. This means that the same inexpensive 3D glasses used in theaters could be used at home. The big question of course is how much will these 3DTVs cost, and how will the 3D quality experience compare to what active shutter glasses can offer. But to those who hate heavy, expensive 3D glasses that require batteries, this is could certainly be good news.

Minox PX3D Compact 3D Camera

3D seems to be the technology that manufacturers are pushing this year, the latest company to show off a 3D camera is Minox, with the the Minox PX3D compact camera, although it looks like it is just a in the concept stages at the moment.

Minox PX3D CompactAs you can see from the photo the Minox PX3D features four vertical lenses, all on top of each other, and they are designed to take 3D photos that you can view without the need for 3D glasses.
Minox PX3D CompactEach of the lenses features a five megapixel sensor, and have a 9mm focal length, and each one takes a photograph from a slightly different perspective.

One the photo has been taken, the user can then pick out a final single merged image, the image will then be saved as an AVI file and can then be viewied in 3D without the need for 3D glasses.

The Kinect You Need to Know

Basic principle: to construct a peripheral that would allow users to control a video game using nothing but an advanced motion-detecting camera.

One team was comprised of Microsoft employees, the other, we’re told, was run by Hidden Path, a studio made up of many former Microsoft employees (and who would go on to release the excellent Defense Grid).

These guys weren’t working with “exotic gyroscopic and accelerometer-based controller prototypes”. They were working on a proto-Kinect.

The internal team was looking at technology developed by 3DV, a company Microsoft would in 2009 actually purchase, the other tech from PrimeSense, who would eventually go on to provide the brains behind Kinect. But that’s now.

Back then, the technologies went head-to-head, their teams given a brief to present a selection of tech demos to be presented to Moore, who would make the ultimate decision whether to show them at E3 2007 or not.

Some of the demos revealed to Kotaku included “air drumming”, a game where you hit balls (similar to one of Kinect’s earliest demonstrations), painting, basketball shooting, a lightsaber fighting game and a number of interface ideas and visualisation tricks, like a Minority Report-type menu system and a tool that could make the user look like they were in an iPod commercial.

Some demos performed well (the Minority Report stuff), others not so well (the drumming), but one concept in particular really stole the show. It came from the 3DV team, and had a working title of “Ghost Grid”, because it was able to generate a 3D “mesh” of everything the camera could see and incorporate it into a virtual environment, with your real-world actions influencing the on-screen world via a modelled physics system.

Rendering the player as a “ghost” (described as being similar in on-screen appearance to the silhouette in Punch-Out, only capturing the outline of the actual player), this meant that the player could interact with virtual objects and environments in a manner that current Kinect hardware can only dream of.

To give you an idea of how this worked, imagine Kinect’s ball-whacking demo. Only, instead of reacting to a single type of object flying at you along a pre-determined path, you could properly interact with a whole range of items at varying speeds and locations. Something pushed slowly would roll/move away slowly. A brick wall built around the player could be smashed down brick by brick. You could even “pick up” a virtual item, and either use it or throw it away, the speed at which you flung it being recreated in the game world.

This demo would work with a single player or, if somebody else joined in, would work just as well with two, the prototype hardware was – unlike the “neutered” Kinect shipping later this year – able to easily handle the physics of two players interacting with the game world.

While impressive, our sources tell us that though it was an amazing experience to take part in, it did not demo well for the bystander. Which considering it was vying for a chance to be shown off at a trade show with the world’s media watching was a problem. With the remaining demo concepts all also plagued by technical problems (or the fact they just turned out a bit rubbish), it was decided that for 2007 the technology simply wasn’t quite there, and so proto-Kinect was not shown off.

Peter Moore left the company shortly after E3 2007, and upon his leaving, the projects drifted apart as well, with Mattrick having to issue a “call to arms” to get things back on track once he’d taken over from Moore, a process that would eventually lead to Project Natal and the Kinect many of you are putting through its paces today.

We can only wonder, then, what would have happened had Moore stuck around a bit longer and these teams continued their research. Would Kinect have been out sooner, beating Sony’s PlayStation Move to market?

It’s also interesting to consider just what Kinect could have been capable of had internal hardware not been sacrificed for cost; a beefier Kinect may have been more expensive, but if it could have pulled off the kind of interactivity found in “Ghost Grid”, would that have been worth it?

We’ve checked with Microsoft to see if they can provide any more details on these early prototypes, and will update if we hear back. Likewise, we reached out to Peter Moore for further information, but was told he could “not comment on non-public events that occurred while I was at Microsoft”.

Motus, A Real-Life-3D Camera Hybrid System For Gaming Pleasure

That headline makes it sound a little sexier than it is, but this system is pretty cool. It’s actually an application of the Sixense technology we saw at the last CES, which uses magnetic detection instead of visual. Some researchers at Abertay University have made it into a kind of handheld virtual camera, not unlike something similar used by James Cameron for Avatar.

The video explains much of what you need to know, and of course it’s got its work cut out for it when you consider the Move and Kinect, but it’s a cool system nevertheless. When I used the version in development at Razer, it was really a solid system, though they did need to get the latency down.

Supposedly we’ll be seeing a consumer version of this coming out in 2011. I’m guessing Razer will have a new version with standardized controls (it should work with any PC) showing at CES in January. I’ll be sure to get some video there for you guys.

What is A Quantum Hard Drive?

Quantum Pic


Before we even explain more of  the socks out of this emerging new technology allow us a moment’s digression for a short message. The short message is “Warning: Prolific use of the word quantum is sprinkled among the sentences below.”


It all begins with the so far too-difficult-to-define quantum information, which the California Institute of Technology has found a way to transmit via quantum hard drives. The value of this breakthrough is it can overhaul optical based data storage that’s still in vogue among hard drives today.


For extra meat, here are a few technical chunks lifted from the original text:


“…the concept could be applied to more parallel transfers in future quantum drivess, with the number being virtually unlimited. The concept is based on electromagnetic transparency that absorbs four quantum channels and slows down the light to zero for storage.


Lasers were used to cool the four quantum memories, each made up of one million cesium atoms that are magnetically separated by one millimeter. The technique was first achieved by Caltech five years ago, but was limited to two ensembles. The Institute has now applied it theoretically to unlimited nodes and made a computer possible.”


For a more comprehensive review of this new field, we suggest a hearty perusal of the source article, itself only a click away. Enjoy!
