How To Get Your 3DTV Now
27 July 2010As being reported according to the College of Optometrists, a sizable portion of the population will be unable to see the full effects of 3DTV in action. Due to problems with their binocular vision, 56% of people between the ages of 18 and 38 will have their viewing experience limited in some way. Conditions such as amblyopia and strabismus, which affect about 5% of the population, make 3D viewing impossible. It is possible that, with training or surgery to correct these conditions, those affected would be able to take full advantage of all that 3D has to offer.
Some viewers of 3D images may experience the symptoms of motion sickness and thus have problems viewing 3DTV.studies say visual motion hypersensitivity is reported to lead to dizziness during 2D programming,and also nausia and stress when looking at 3D programs.
Since todays 3D technology is still being pioneered its story will not be written overnight. Judgments on the adoption of a revolutionary technology like 3DTV provided by Dish Network and others can only come years after it has hit the market. While HDTV has been accessible for at least seven years, it still has yet to record half the sales. 3DTV is benefiting from its new technology by being included on pretty much every TV recently manufactured, but the real truth about it will be revealed by how multi-channel providers respond to this new technology.If there isn’t enough bandwidth, then there is no reason to believe that television providers will give up precious space that could be used for HD.
Most providers will be reluctant to give up HD, which is still a key selling point and revenue stream, to satisfy a small number of customers.In the initial period, the selection of channels will be limited, however it will give companies a chance to eliminate any technical glitches in the early stages.The leading network in HD was ESPN, so they will obviously also be in the front row again in 3D. Time will tell if it will prove to be as profitable as HD. Consumers should just take solace in the fact that there won’t be a format war this time around.
