3D Television
3D TV, or stereoscopic TV, is an effort at mimicking reality. It's an
optical illusion, a trick to make our brains think something's got depth, when
it hasn't - to make something look real, when it's not.
That may sound a tad dishonest, but it's not different to adding extra
detail with high definition cameras. 3D has broadly the same aim; though
technically speaking it's completely different to HD.
With 3D glasses on, each eye sees a slightly different image; your brain
does the rest in creating the illusion of both depth and 'front' effects in
what is obviously a completely flat image.
Do It Matter
More than 54 million Americans rely on free local television and do not subscribe to a pay TV service and even those who pay for their services still rely on local stations for news, emergency updates and community information.
