Sony To Launch 3D TVs By Late 2010

eldavojohn writes "The Financial Times is reporting that Sony is announcing 3D TVs for late 2010 at the IFA technology trade show in Berlin. It's another glasses-based technology with "active shutter" being employed (the same stuff teased at CES as well as employed on NVIDIA's glasses). Expect to see 3D Bravia television sets, Vaio laptops, PS3s and Blu-ray disc players compatible with this technology."

Yay!

And, of course, there is a industry-wide, agreed upon standard for the 3D encoding and formats, right? Right??

There's different degrees of dominance. He's probably got an extreme case where the other eye is mostly disregarded by the brain, possibly because it's defective. The eye, I mean.

The Sony 3D TV will only play back Beta tapes and DRM-ed content off Memory Sticks(TM), and it will install a rootkit on every device in your house before committing seppuku.

The 3D on this TV is so good that not only will the money shot make you duck, it'll give you an STD too.

[Chris Mattern]

I've been finding that TV has less and less depth for some time now...

It's not defective, it's just that the eye is generating 32-bit values and the brain is expecting 16-bit ones, so there's an overflow and it aborts.

If it's impossible to correct vision in one of your eyes, then it sucks to be you.

But she can now, or is she dead? (Just messing with you on the use of past tense.)

Is it beyond possibility that Hans Reiser would have a Slashdot account?

Not to mention 3D-R, 3D+R, and 3D-ROM.
