2010 was a breakout year for 3D TV , 3D movies and 3D content, but the market is still in its infancy. Jeffrey Katzenberg, CEO of Dreamworks Animation SKG Inc., calls 3D media “the greatest innovation that’s happened for the movie theaters and for moviegoers since color.”
To date, the largest complaint has been the lack of content and the frustration with special eyewear. Companies have exhibited glasses-free (or “autostereoscopic”) TV prototypes for years, but CES 2011 brought the first commercial models from Toshiba. This will launch in the second half of the year for a currently unknown price.
As for TV, DirecTV now offers three 3D channels, the joint venture between Sony and IMAX is scheduled to debut in early 2011, and you can now view ESPN3D’s schedule of upcoming 3D broadcasts.
Panasonic is hoping viewers scrolling habits will change with a 3D mentality as it showcased a 3D TV interface to go with your 3D movies and sports. In the near future, you will have the ability to scroll back and forth across TV and Blu-ray options and INTO and OUT of the screen, all with a nifty 3D web interface.
