But its always been a challenging problem for marketers to demonstrate what stereoscopic images would look like *without* depicting it overlapping the boundaries of the display device.

Bunin Fri, 03 Aug 2012 14:01:09 +0000 http://www.kurzweilai.net/?p=157849#comment-27327 I have no comment to make about this, as I know nothing about it. But I would like to make a general comment about the misleading way many 3D systems are advertised. Most ads showing 3D, will show People, animals or objects protruding from the TV screen and EXTENDING BEYOND THE BOUNDARIES OF THE TV SCREEN. I believe it's important to point out that images produced by any existing imaging system CANNOT appear to extend beyond the borders of the imaging device. This is why 3D on TV was not even a practical concept until large screen formats became available. If an object is intended to appear close to your face, for example, it must take up a large portion of your field of view. Imagine, for example, holding a coffee cup 6" from your face. A very large portion of your field of view will be taken up by the image of that cup. Now imagine that that image were really 6 to10 feet away from you (about the distance that your TV might be from your face. The image of the coffee cup would have to be several feet across and several feet high in order to look as large as it does when it is only 6" from your face. You would need a very large TV indeed, to produce that large an image. I have no comment to make about this, as I know nothing about it.

The name of his company is 3-D Vision, not the product. I doubt he’ll be sued – might have to change the name, if that. The name of his company is 3-D Vision, not the product.

I was surprised he did not put his project up on www.kickstarter.com instead.....?? I wish it was easier to see samples of his 3d vs. other 3d and had not heard of the rachel ray tv guide that must have been done last Halloween. ….a had not heard of http://www.fundable.com, so thanks for that link.
