Sony creating 3D technology without the glasses



Bangalore: The Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas was all about tablets and 3D technology this year. The just concluded event witnessed a lot of technology manoeuvres in terms of 3D.
A pioneer amongst the 3D exponents is Sony. The company has displayed a prototype of a 3D TV model that eliminates the issue of images emerging out of the screen without requiring viewers to stand exactly in front of the TVIn an era where 3D technology is showcasing many advancements,
the elimination of glasses to view the contents remains a prime hurdle for many companies bringing 3D products.
Sony maintained that it would continue working toward 3D "with or without glasses".

Sony's prototype 3D TV used a wide angle viewing prospect for showcasing 3D content that did not need viewers to stand in front of the TV directly.

Sony's CEO Howard Stringer believes in the technology the company is working on and shushed the cynics by saying that Sony has earlier overcome the skepticism shown in other technologies like HDTV and color TVs.
Seeing 3-D without glasses is more convenient," Sony Senior Vice President Yoshihisa Ishida said Thursday at Tokyo headquarters.
"We must take account of pricing before we can think about when to start offering them."

Sony, the Tokyo-based electronics and entertainment giant, showed its latest 3-D products for the Japanese market, including flat-panel TVs and Blu-ray recorders.
Sony unveiled for the Japanese markets six models of quick-start Blu-ray players/recorders that can record and enjoy watching 3D images with those glasses.

Sony said it plans to be No. 1 in market share in Japan in 3-D TVs and 3-D players and recorders, taking advantage of its position as an electronics maker with a movie studio.

Sony said it will start selling in Japan next month two films and two music videos in 3-D, and planned home software of 3-D theater releases, including a 3-D Spider-Man opening in 2012.

4 Free Apps For Discovering Great Content On the Go

1. StumbleUpon The granddaddy of discovering random cool stuff online, StumbleUpon will celebrate its 10th anniversary later this year — but its mobile app is less than a year old. On the web, its eight million users have spent the last decade recommending (or disliking) millions of webpages with a thumbs up / thumbs down system on a specially installed browser bar. The StumbleUpon engine then passes on recommendations from users whose interests seem similar to yours. Hit the Stumble button and you’ll get a random page that the engine thinks you’ll like. The more you like or dislike its recommendations, the more these random pages will surprise and delight. Device : iPhone , iPad , Android 2. iReddit Reddit is a self-described social news website where users vote for their favorite stories, pictures or posts from other users, then argue vehemently over their meaning in the comments section. In recent years, it has gained readers as its competitor Digg has lost them.

‘Wireless’ humans could backbone new mobile networks

People could form the backbone of powerful new mobile internet networks by carrying wearable sensors. The sensors could create new ultra high bandwidth mobile internet infrastructures and reduce the density of mobile phone base stations.Engineers from Queen’s Institute of Electronics, Communications and Information Technology are working on a new project based on the rapidly developing science of body-centric communications.Social benefits could include vast improvements in mobile gaming and remote healthcare, along with new precision monitoring of athletes and real-time tactical training in team sports, an institute release said.The researchers are investigating how small sensors carried by members of the public, in items such as next generation smartphones, could communicate with each other to create potentially vast body-to-body networks.The new sensors would interact to transmit data, providing ‘anytime, anywhere’ mobile network connectivity.Simon Cotton from the i
