Toshiba has announced that they will be releasing a new OCB Liquid Crystal Panel for 3D Glasses which they recently developed. These new 3D glasses built using the OCB Liquid Crystal Panel will be suitable for watching 3D television, enjoying 3D movies, or playing 3D games. The new liquid crystal display panel developed by Toshiba employs the latter time-based, with-glasses approach. “In the time-division with-glasses method, images for the left and right eyes appear alternately, with the special glasses working as a synchronous shutter. That is, when the left image appears, the left liquid crystal shutter opens while the right shutter closes. When the right image appears the right shutter opens while the left shutter closes. Repeating this operation at high speed allows the user to synthesize the left and right images in their brain and to recognize them as a 3D image. As we all might know by now, 3D images are created by providing slightly different images to your left and right eyes. There are two methods of separating a picture into left and right images: one uses special glasses, and the other is without glasses, called auto-stereoscopy. The with-glasses approach is applied to movies and TV, and there are two primary methods: one uses polarizing filters, and the other is based on time division. Toshiba will be showcasing the OCB Liquid Crystal Panel for 3D Glasses in booth #631 at SID 2010 International Symposium from May 25 to May 27, 2010 in Washington.
