How far has 3D projector technology come?

Mitch Rawl

Is it at the start of its technology curve or would I be well advised to buy ne... i also want super HD quality for standard videos... would I be better off just getting top of the range standard projector or waiting years for a 3D?

Answer
3D is nothing more than a fad. It's a temporary interest that is on it's downward swing. Soon, very few movies at all will be in 3D since people are getting really tired of 3D. There are already people, like myself, who will completely boycott a movie that is in 3D for the simple fact that it's ruining the entertainment industry. Hollywood would rather make a really crappy movie in 3D because moronic mouth-breathers are obsessed with crap "popping out" of the screen at them, than to produce a movie that actually has a legitimate story line or decent acting. People are finally starting to realize this, and they are finally starting to respond. Within the next few years, hardly any movie will be in 3D.

So go ahead and waste you money only to find that 10 years from now you will be stuck with the same 7 crappy movies to watch in 3D.

Help with PS3 + 3D Projector?

Does anybody know if this projector

http://www.amazon.com/ViewSonic-PJD6531w-Projector-120Hz-Lumens/dp/B0033PRQE2/ref=pd_cp_e_0

will work with 3D from a PS3? (For 3D Blu-Ray movies and/or 3D Games?)
How about this one?

Answer
Several projectors are being sold that are compatible with NVIDIA 3D Vision: http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-requirements.html . NVIDIA 3D Vision is a PC based viewing system, a PC is required to deliver the 3D video to a 3D TV or projector.

If you buy a projector that is compatible with NVIDIA 3D Vision, that doesn't guarantee that it will also accept 3D video from a stand-alone Blu-ray player, such as the PS3. Many of those projectors might only be able to accept 3D video from a PC with an NVIDIA 3D graphic card installed.

So you might want to wait until a website has tested a 3D projector with a 3D Blu-ray player, to make sure that it isn't an "NVIDIA only" 3D projector.

Viewsonic pjd5133 projector 3D?

nobody

So I'm considering buyin the viewsonic pjd5133 projector it says it's 3D ready . I have a ps3 and I want it to play video games but also to play or watch movies in 3D.. So all I need to watch it in 3D is the glasses ? I'm not sure if im also suppose to get some processor thing also please clarify thanks in advance !

Answer
"The projectorâs embedded emitter function means all thatâs required to unlock 3D capabilities is a pair of DLP Link compatible glasses, such as the optional ViewSonic PGD-250 active shutter glass kit." - (check source below)

So just DLP Link glasses are required.

Mist + multiple projectors = 3D hologram?

magicknigh

In film Now You See Me, they were used to create a 3D hologram. Is it real?

Answer
There is a way to create "floating" video projections like that, but it is NOT a hologram. A hologram is a very specific way to create a an image which can be viewed as 3D. The 3D image in a hologram is not projected like we see in the movies. By splitting a laser beam and illuminating film with one beam and reflecting the other off an object onto the film you essentially take a picture of the interference of the light waves. By viewing this interference pattern (by looking into the "film", not above or beside it) you see an image of the original object which you can look around and view from multiple angles providing that you are always looking into the interference pattern. This creates a very realistic 3D image. That image though, is not projected anywhere. It never leaves the "film".

The "problem" with the mist projection systems is that making the image 3D is harder to pull off. The one system that I'm aware of creates an invisible "screen" of mist that the image is projected onto. The image is floating in the air and you can touch it, but it's still a flat image. Making an actual 3D image with depth is harder.
