3D LCD HDTV or 3D Plasma Television?

If your curious how 3D TVs function. We should first be aware of how 3D functions, you need to figure out how it is when folks see at 3 dimensions. The 2 eyes, you have a left and a right eye. If you were to place an object and put it up close to your face and look through it with your right and left eye. You can see a totally different object. If you repeat this when you move the object away. You can still see the difference between the two, but not as vast as it was. This practice is why you see 3D objects when its close to you and how the effect slowly goes away as the objects move further away from you.

When it comes to the movie-theater you have 2 different light sources, 2 different projectors that put a polarizer on the front of each projector. 1 for the right eye and 1 for the left eye. So as long as you have a pair of eye-wear which have the same polarity as the left and the right, then were ensured that the left image goes to the left eye and the right image goes to the right eye.

So when you buy television, you only have 1 light source. So we have to produce a right image and a left image in a different way. We do this in a frame sequence matter. The projection image produces. What we have to do though for it to synchronize with our eyes is we have to wear a pair of glasses that is synchronize to the TV. The TV commands the eye-wear and says... I am now showing the left image. So therefore the lens of the left side of the eye-wear will become transparent, When this happens the right lens will be going black. So therefore the left image is being seen by the left eye. The reason why you may not notice the flashing is because its done really quick (usually over 100x a second).

There is nothing wrong with plasma television or LCD HDTV in respects to 3D TVS. The major difference between the two is how they create light.

For LCD HDTV they have to refresh their picture very rapidly. LCD TVs light source works in a way like little gates that open and close to allow the light source through. It may take sometime for those little LCD molecules to change their state, This may cause a problem when the right eye sees part of the left image and the left eye sees part of the right image.

as for plasma television. Your producing frame sequential images. A left then a right. A plasma television starts with a pixel that makes its image, then erases it and then produces the next one. So when you produce a left, right, left, right picture, There’s a small chance of getting distortion between the left and right image.
