WEBVTT 00:00:00.299 --> 00:00:07.620 settle for Just Two Dimensions 00:00:03.500 --> 00:00:10.860 when you can have free a decade ago the 00:00:07.620 --> 00:00:12.900 marketing machine behind 3D TV was so 00:00:10.860 --> 00:00:17.279 strong that even we got caught up in the hype but after all those years not to 00:00:14.940 --> 00:00:22.320 mention the millions and millions of dollars spent promoting 3D as the next 00:00:20.039 --> 00:00:28.080 big thing seems like no one cares anymore 00:00:25.019 --> 00:00:30.240 to the point where if you blinked and 00:00:28.080 --> 00:00:36.899 missed the craze entirely you might have never seen a 3D TV in person are you 00:00:33.540 --> 00:00:39.840 missing out did 3D TVs really deserve to 00:00:36.899 --> 00:00:44.760 die or were they simply left to slowly bleed out by an uncaring industry that's 00:00:41.879 --> 00:00:49.320 always chasing the next shiny box badge to imagine what could have been we 00:00:46.980 --> 00:00:54.780 tracked down two of the most notable 3D TVs to trial on our staff of highly 00:00:51.539 --> 00:00:57.420 trained guinea pigs was it cool or does 00:00:54.780 --> 00:01:03.420 the third d stand for disappointment what's never disappointing is our 00:01:00.059 --> 00:01:05.280 sponsor AMD are you overdue for a GPU 00:01:03.420 --> 00:01:10.260 upgrade well it's a great time to purchase an AMD Radeon RX 6000 series 00:01:07.500 --> 00:01:16.280 GPU and you can get the inside scoop on some great options from AMD and their 00:01:12.299 --> 00:01:16.280 Partners at the link down below 00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:23.820 foreign 00:01:23.820 --> 00:01:32.580 in the late 2000s 3D was picking up steam again as a cool new innovation but 00:01:29.340 --> 00:01:34.939 it's actually really really old Tech Way 00:01:32.580 --> 00:01:40.500 Back In 1832 yes 190 years ago Sir Charles wheatstone 00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:44.579 invented the stereoscope which used a pair of mirrors angled towards images 00:01:42.479 --> 00:01:49.380 taken from two slightly different perspectives to create the illusion of 00:01:46.740 --> 00:01:53.520 depth you might remember these and you've almost certainly seen one of 00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:58.200 these well both of them used the exact same principle but it's a bit of a 00:01:55.979 --> 00:02:02.040 lonely experience and here isn't it when the motion picture was created people 00:02:00.060 --> 00:02:08.239 were eager to try and blend the popular novelty of stereoscopes and view masters 00:02:04.619 --> 00:02:11.400 with movies resulting in anaglyphic 3D 00:02:08.239 --> 00:02:14.099 these iconic red and cyan glasses have 00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:19.200 become the de facto symbol of 3D but while they were super wowzers for black 00:02:17.040 --> 00:02:24.360 and white movies they significantly degraded the experience of your 00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:26.580 newfangled Technicolor movies of course 00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:30.900 we've come a long way since then and thanks to light polarizing glass 00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:37.500 developed by Polaroid that allowed both convincing depth and full color 3D films 00:02:34.920 --> 00:02:43.860 would surge back at least three more times first in the 1950s Golden Age 00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:48.420 Again in the 80s 00:02:43.860 --> 00:02:51.300 3D the third Dimensions Terror and 00:02:48.420 --> 00:02:57.000 finally in the 2010s spurred on by your favorite big blue aliens no not those 00:02:54.660 --> 00:03:03.120 ones these ones the difference they said was that this 00:02:59.819 --> 00:03:08.160 time you could bring the immersion home 00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:09.900 with you Jake get over here oh yeah 00:03:08.160 --> 00:03:16.800 I expected an action tumble over the couch but that's pretty good no oh god 00:03:12.540 --> 00:03:19.800 with no obvious downsides then 00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:21.720 3D was suddenly thrust back into nearly 00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:26.400 every form of entertainment that could fit a third D but how did they bring it 00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:31.379 to the home where previous attempts failed to understand home 3D we need to 00:03:28.920 --> 00:03:37.260 First understand commercial 3D the most common of which is the real D 3D found 00:03:34.140 --> 00:03:39.480 in theaters it works by projecting the 00:03:37.260 --> 00:03:47.040 image through a polarizing lens that actually Alters its polarization 00:03:42.440 --> 00:03:50.060 144 times per second in step with 144 00:03:47.040 --> 00:03:52.680 frames per second of film wait a second 00:03:50.060 --> 00:03:57.599 144 frames per second I thought movies are at 24 FPS 00:03:54.659 --> 00:04:02.159 well they are but for starters each of your eyes is going to need its own 24 00:03:59.580 --> 00:04:07.440 frames per second so there's 48 frames right there and at that frame rate 00:04:04.340 --> 00:04:10.560 flicker from the polarization lens is 00:04:07.440 --> 00:04:13.080 very noticeable so to create a smoother 00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:17.880 experience each frame actually gets shown three times for a shorter period 00:04:15.540 --> 00:04:22.380 each of your eyes gets covered by its own polarized lens which filters out 00:04:19.859 --> 00:04:27.540 every other frame giving you that 3D experience in the home by contrast 00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:33.180 though the two steps of polarizing the light and filtering it out were split 00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:38.820 resulting in two main categories of 3D technology active and passive 00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:41.940 representing these two we've got two displays that we're going to look at 00:04:39.900 --> 00:04:48.300 today first of which is a Sony PlayStation 3D display this is not to be 00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:52.440 confused with the PlayStation TV this is 00:04:48.300 --> 00:04:56.520 our active 3D TV it's 24 inches 1080P 00:04:52.440 --> 00:04:58.880 and sports a 240Hz fresh rate but that 00:04:56.520 --> 00:05:04.979 does not mean that it actually supports 240 FPS content it was a whole 00:05:01.940 --> 00:05:08.100 advertising holdover from the plasma TV 00:05:04.979 --> 00:05:10.320 days it should be noted that in 3D it 00:05:08.100 --> 00:05:17.699 was only able to do 120 frames per second at 720p our second representing 00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:20.580 passive 3D is the LG signature G6 OLED 00:05:17.699 --> 00:05:27.539 from 2016. this is one of the last and arguably the best 3D TVs made before all 00:05:25.139 --> 00:05:35.940 manufacturing of 3D TVs stopped later that year it's 65 inches 4K it cost a 00:05:31.740 --> 00:05:38.580 whopping 8 000 and it's HDR Peak 00:05:35.940 --> 00:05:43.440 brightness is only 500 nits so it only kind of supports HDR kind of like 00:05:40.979 --> 00:05:47.280 YouTube only kind of supports HDR get subscribed by the way so you don't miss 00:05:44.820 --> 00:05:51.780 our upcoming video on that because it uses passive 3D it comes with some huge 00:05:49.979 --> 00:05:57.600 advantages before we take a look at the king though let's talk about the peasant I'm just 00:05:55.139 --> 00:06:02.220 going to get all I'm going to get all oh my god oh move your hand does that not 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:05.880 immediate oh don't look at the lights uh use your other stick I don't even know 00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:10.800 how to fire use your other stick oh god oh the stick fires this doesn't seem 00:06:09.180 --> 00:06:15.600 like a game where the 3D really does a whole lot I mean it's cool what's better 00:06:13.020 --> 00:06:19.380 about passive versus active oh we're gonna talk about that boys actually I 00:06:17.520 --> 00:06:26.280 guess now's as good a time as any to say that early on pretty much all 3D TVs 00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:28.800 used a mostly normal LCD display which 00:06:26.280 --> 00:06:34.020 helped reduce cost and complexity but unfortunately relied on Active 3D 00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:38.460 shutter glasses which brought both cost and complexity back into the picture 00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:43.440 like the polarizing lenses built into the movie theater projector these 00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:47.280 glasses are powered and their lenses contain a layer of crystals that can 00:06:45.479 --> 00:06:52.139 rotate when an electrical charge is sent through them when those crystals rotate 00:06:49.259 --> 00:06:56.940 they block the TV's image from one of your eyes so if you sync this up with a 00:06:55.500 --> 00:07:00.620 high refresh rate display that alternates between the views that you're 00:06:58.919 --> 00:07:06.780 supposed to see the left and right image voila the brain does its magic producing 00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:08.400 a 3D image hell the script says before I 00:07:06.780 --> 00:07:13.440 try it I got a gamer up with my Wan hoodie but um I guess we've already started trying 00:07:10.919 --> 00:07:17.400 it so how did you store.com yeah exactly right when the game starts it 00:07:15.060 --> 00:07:21.000 immediately makes me want to barf okay oh man so you keep saying stuff that's 00:07:19.259 --> 00:07:24.900 like wow this is a perfect time to transition into the next scripted bit 00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:28.979 fine let's just do it the issues with these passive displays 00:07:27.060 --> 00:07:33.419 and active shutter glasses are many first up the powered glasses need 00:07:31.020 --> 00:07:37.259 batteries thus needing to be recharged they can also suffer from Wireless 00:07:35.400 --> 00:07:41.639 interference if you block the sync transmitter that's either on the display 00:07:38.880 --> 00:07:46.560 or as a separate piece of hardware and many users complained about comfort and 00:07:44.280 --> 00:07:50.639 flicker especially if there's any other light in the room oh don't look at the 00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:54.660 lights finally of course they're expensive displays that relied on these 00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:59.099 kinds of glasses for their 3d effect would sometimes come with a pair or 00:07:57.000 --> 00:08:02.819 maybe two included in the box but if you wanted any more than that they would run 00:08:00.660 --> 00:08:06.960 you anywhere from fifty dollars to over a hundred and fifty dollars each not 00:08:05.520 --> 00:08:13.500 that you were likely to need more glasses the impressive library of about 00:08:10.020 --> 00:08:15.599 60 3D games for the PlayStation 3 pales 00:08:13.500 --> 00:08:22.139 in comparison to its overall library and notably includes very few multiplayer 00:08:18.780 --> 00:08:23.699 titles in a nutshell PlayStation 3D had 00:08:22.139 --> 00:08:28.919 many of the same pros and cons as NVIDIA's 3D Vision for PC gaming high 00:08:26.460 --> 00:08:33.659 cost limited game support reduced image brightness and LCD technology that 00:08:31.620 --> 00:08:38.880 simply wasn't fast enough to fully separate the stereo images which led to 00:08:36.300 --> 00:08:44.039 a lot of brightness loss as well as frequent user headaches options oh this 00:08:41.700 --> 00:08:48.480 is so cool yeah should I try it now similar view here we go and you lose so 00:08:47.100 --> 00:08:52.680 much brightness with these they literally block half the light half the 00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:56.880 light yeah and then lift the glasses up oh one other issue is that devs weren't 00:08:55.080 --> 00:09:01.140 used to working in 3D meaning that important information like the subtitles 00:08:59.040 --> 00:09:04.500 in Killzone for example would appear at a different depth than where you 00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:08.580 normally had to look so you had to refocus your eyes to read them and then 00:09:06.779 --> 00:09:13.140 look back so if you blinked you could miss important information of course the 00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:18.120 killer feature in my mind when I heard about the PlayStation 3D display wasn't 00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:24.779 necessarily stereoscopic gaming but simulvue simulvue promised to allow 00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:27.839 local multiplayer without splitting the 00:09:24.779 --> 00:09:30.540 screen so each Jake and I could use half 00:09:27.839 --> 00:09:34.920 of the frames being output to see our own version of the game really cool 00:09:32.640 --> 00:09:37.800 right yeah I can see that being cool if you could like watch different content 00:09:36.660 --> 00:09:43.920 from your spouse when you're sitting okay that's exactly the next talking point one of the most things I was most 00:09:41.820 --> 00:09:47.100 excited for was like the kids are watching their kids movie with their 00:09:45.300 --> 00:09:51.240 headphones in the wife and I are watching some serious movie right on the 00:09:49.980 --> 00:09:56.220 same TV yeah that'd be pretty cool family family time right instead you got 00:09:53.940 --> 00:10:00.200 to buy multiple TVs yeah it's stupid are we are we playing at the same time 00:09:58.019 --> 00:10:06.300 right now I think so oh my God whoa this is so cool though I never got 00:10:03.779 --> 00:10:11.399 to try it I never had a PlayStation 3D display back in the day and only a 00:10:09.060 --> 00:10:15.240 handful of games ever supported this but I heard about this and I was like wow 00:10:13.260 --> 00:10:19.320 how amazing would that be right like for like something like Mario Kart yeah if 00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:24.959 you could just both have a full screen freaking display that'd be amazing it is 00:10:21.660 --> 00:10:27.000 pounding now it's very obvious right 00:10:24.959 --> 00:10:31.860 that the polarization filter isn't perfect and the pixels don't switch fast 00:10:29.580 --> 00:10:34.640 enough with LCD to completely get rid of the ghost of the other image so it can 00:10:33.839 --> 00:10:40.380 be very unpleasant in the real world 00:10:38.160 --> 00:10:46.620 because of the hard to ignore downsides of active 3D glasses this Tech ended up 00:10:43.680 --> 00:10:51.300 pretty much completely abandoned so then how does the passive alternative fare to 00:10:50.220 --> 00:10:56.540 find out we're going to have to jump ahead a few years and a few price 00:10:53.700 --> 00:11:01.800 brackets to the LG signature OLED G6 holy if I just close my right eye 00:10:59.160 --> 00:11:08.040 and Jake closes his left here we go boys it still works the first advantage of 00:11:05.100 --> 00:11:12.899 passive 3D TVs is that they can be more easily enjoyed with the whole family 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:15.240 thanks to much cheaper glasses how cheap 00:11:12.899 --> 00:11:19.440 you might ask well free if you're willing to be creative this is a pair 00:11:17.100 --> 00:11:23.339 that Taryn actually liberated from the movie theater and they work just fine 00:11:21.899 --> 00:11:26.820 we're supposed to try it with a Blu-ray first but Jake already got ahead of 00:11:25.140 --> 00:11:32.100 ourselves a little bit and tried just Closing one eye to see half of our Kill 00:11:29.100 --> 00:11:34.019 Zone game and it's like how how well 00:11:32.100 --> 00:11:38.040 does this compare to shutters yeah way better the brightness isn't crazy but I 00:11:36.180 --> 00:11:43.320 can screen Peak so easy well it's cool we can show the camera this though oh 00:11:40.560 --> 00:11:49.260 Linus this looks so cool I know it does here's the thing Jake I was a 3D nerd 00:11:46.260 --> 00:11:51.300 but really yeah the problem is that the 00:11:49.260 --> 00:11:56.100 active shutter glasses gave me just a splitting headache like I wanted to love 00:11:52.920 --> 00:11:59.579 it and the passive stuff well it never 00:11:56.100 --> 00:12:02.880 really got good until the moment 3D died 00:11:59.579 --> 00:12:06.360 yeah this came out like in the the the 00:12:02.880 --> 00:12:09.240 body of 3D was twitching and this TV was 00:12:06.360 --> 00:12:14.640 its last spasm and it finally got not good but great okay here we go you ready 00:12:12.540 --> 00:12:18.899 this doesn't look that 3D to me um I can't tell 00:12:16.079 --> 00:12:23.820 I mean it does kind of look 3D there's definitely stuff popping out but I don't 00:12:21.360 --> 00:12:27.600 think that I would call this a very satisfying experience well we have 00:12:25.980 --> 00:12:30.839 Blu-rays um yeah but I really wanted to see 00:12:29.339 --> 00:12:35.360 something that I think is actually going to look good and Titanic definitely 00:12:33.959 --> 00:12:41.120 won't Independence Day Resurgence I mean I 00:12:37.620 --> 00:12:41.120 don't think that even looks good in 2D 00:12:44.339 --> 00:12:49.920 TV oh my God maybe that's a thing that 00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:55.260 might be a thing Jake we gave up on trying to play 3D files we are on our 00:12:52.019 --> 00:12:57.720 Titanic Blu-ray with our Panasonic fancy 00:12:55.260 --> 00:13:04.560 Blu-ray player and we're ready now right yeah well hit it well wait is it is it 00:13:00.180 --> 00:13:06.060 my controller yeah press 3D act oh wow I 00:13:04.560 --> 00:13:10.079 don't know if this is the movie I would go watch in 3D like oh wow the people 00:13:08.880 --> 00:13:14.459 are coming they pop out of the corner oh that's pen 00:13:12.300 --> 00:13:22.279 is coming right out wow this guy is really in front very 3D like obnoxiously 00:13:18.540 --> 00:13:24.839 through the brightness difference is 00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:30.180 marginal we've got some better stuff coming in terms of the actual 00:13:26.959 --> 00:13:32.700 3dness of the content but in terms of 00:13:30.180 --> 00:13:39.060 how the TV performs like good gravy isn't that amazing passive TVs are able 00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:43.680 to achieve this level of brightness and I mean it doesn't give you a headache no 00:13:41.700 --> 00:13:47.339 I don't have a headache I mean I do have a headache still from yesterday but 00:13:45.420 --> 00:13:52.980 that's the same headache the way that they do this is that each alternate line 00:13:49.800 --> 00:13:54.660 vertically is actually polarized the 00:13:52.980 --> 00:13:59.459 opposite way coming right out of the TV and you can actually see it if you take 00:13:57.120 --> 00:14:04.560 a pair of glasses and you hold it right up to your content now on a regular 00:14:01.980 --> 00:14:09.240 1080p display that would be a bit of a problem because you'd be giving up half 00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:14.820 of your vertical resolution for a 1080p 3D movie but because this one is 4K 00:14:12.420 --> 00:14:21.360 there's actually some trickery in the TV itself so we are getting the full 1080p 00:14:18.180 --> 00:14:23.820 images interlaced because we have double 00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:27.720 the resolution that's part of what it makes this like frame smashing or 00:14:25.500 --> 00:14:32.100 something like that uh what interlacing no no it works kind of like an 00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:37.980 interlaced video frame except that instead of having just one in frame with 00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:42.540 half of it being shown alternately we've actually got two full frames one for 00:14:40.260 --> 00:14:45.839 each eye utilizing that full vertical resolution 00:14:43.920 --> 00:14:52.320 come try it David this is an absolutely incredible 3D 00:14:49.980 --> 00:14:56.940 experience though well why don't we try a movie that might actually use 3D 00:14:54.959 --> 00:15:02.339 better yeah ocean predators oh there we go oh whoa that looks awful 00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:06.360 wow if you move around it looks so weird I'm actually kind of surprised at how 00:15:04.740 --> 00:15:10.260 well it works from different viewing angles I wanna Let's do an animated one 00:15:08.940 --> 00:15:15.120 you figured out a way to play one of the animated ones oh uh I figured out how to 00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:18.600 play Doom I don't want to watch Avatar I want to watch something that's not going 00:15:16.260 --> 00:15:23.279 to be boss baby hi there this is a bit of a long shot do you guys have any 00:15:20.699 --> 00:15:29.040 3D Blu-rays in stock you have a huge selection of course you do 00:15:25.380 --> 00:15:31.199 found it in the clearance section 00:15:29.040 --> 00:15:34.860 very popular 3D Blu-ray they definitely got some animated stuff in here uh yeah 00:15:32.699 --> 00:15:38.820 whoa Toy Story yeah that'd be cool oh this is not three oh 3D version included 00:15:37.260 --> 00:15:46.380 okay well let's pick up some good stuff then okay Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs we got 00:15:42.300 --> 00:15:49.019 some finding oh yeah 14 okay 00:15:46.380 --> 00:15:53.160 I'm actually excited about this Shrek that's what it takes we all saw that I'm 00:15:51.420 --> 00:15:56.699 buying these for work purposes so I'm using the work card and they're staying 00:15:54.600 --> 00:16:02.279 at work are you ready I'm I'm ready 00:15:58.860 --> 00:16:05.519 you ready to get shreked okay wow this 00:16:02.279 --> 00:16:08.519 is actually this is awesome wow though 00:16:05.519 --> 00:16:09.899 the 3D is done like pretty well this is 00:16:08.519 --> 00:16:14.579 the first one so far that I've been like this actually like kind of adds something the thing is when you've got a 00:16:12.899 --> 00:16:19.980 two camera rig and you're trying to shoot live action in 3D focus is a 00:16:18.300 --> 00:16:25.380 nightmare right because you can only have one part of the scene in focus and 00:16:22.860 --> 00:16:31.320 when you're watching it back then if you look and focus your eyes at a closer or 00:16:28.139 --> 00:16:33.959 a farther away object it's out of focus 00:16:31.320 --> 00:16:37.199 so you're focused on a blurry object it just doesn't work there's still some 00:16:35.760 --> 00:16:41.639 weirdness like when somebody runs into the frame it's kind of like jittery yes 00:16:39.300 --> 00:16:44.820 man now I want a 3D projector for the theater room God damn it man this is 00:16:43.860 --> 00:16:49.560 like a video game there's like propaganda before oh here we go 00:16:47.399 --> 00:16:54.120 interesting they didn't try to overdo the 3D in this movie yeah like in that 00:16:52.800 --> 00:16:57.660 scene it was just the fireworks really yeah I feel like because everything is 00:16:55.920 --> 00:17:02.459 so dark though you don't really it kind of masks the 3dness like in other 00:17:00.540 --> 00:17:05.339 content you notice it a lot more when there's big color changes between what's 00:17:04.199 --> 00:17:10.439 in the foreground and what's in the background this is just that where buddy 00:17:07.980 --> 00:17:15.299 was like below the playing field was pretty cool 00:17:12.439 --> 00:17:17.939 okay this is pretty cool switch it to 2D for a second I want to see what the 00:17:16.199 --> 00:17:23.760 difference is like sure oh yeah that's immediately way more lame 00:17:21.500 --> 00:17:28.860 at some point it should be noted that even with a 4K display depending on the 00:17:26.699 --> 00:17:33.120 3D content you could still be limited to a vertical resolution of 540 lines 00:17:31.860 --> 00:17:37.559 why it often came down to bandwidth 00:17:34.860 --> 00:17:42.720 limitations at the time while Blu-rays could simply double the frame rate and 00:17:40.320 --> 00:17:47.460 or resolution that would have added enough cost for broadcasters that any 00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:53.580 push for home 3D would have been Dead on Arrival so most 3D is actually handled 00:17:50.640 --> 00:17:59.400 by sending two images at half resolution and then broadcasting them together in a 00:17:56.220 --> 00:18:02.460 single 1920x1080 frame the two main ways 00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:04.559 they do this are side by side or top 00:18:02.460 --> 00:18:08.880 bottom where you either lose half of the horizontal resolution or half of the 00:18:06.660 --> 00:18:13.320 vertical resolution respectively the image gets sent to the TV where they are 00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:19.140 then merged and displayed as a single 1080p frame 1080p ish it's kind of like 00:18:16.799 --> 00:18:22.919 when you're interlacing a 2D image but instead of interlacing data from a 00:18:20.760 --> 00:18:27.720 single frame it's actually from two separate frames that are destined to go 00:18:24.780 --> 00:18:33.960 to each of your eye holes truthfully on a quality display like this one it still 00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:36.900 looks pretty good so why I didn't 3D 00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:42.419 stick around this time 3D was and continues to be more difficult to 00:18:38.760 --> 00:18:44.820 produce and really easy to mess up so 00:18:42.419 --> 00:18:49.380 even with that additional cost it would often end up looking cheap adding insult 00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:52.460 to injury the content was expensive to distribute less comfortable for 00:18:51.059 --> 00:18:58.260 audiences you can say that again and all of this 00:18:55.320 --> 00:19:03.179 at a higher price glasses list 3D displays like on the Nintendo 3DS 00:19:00.120 --> 00:19:05.700 addressed some of these problems games 00:19:03.179 --> 00:19:10.980 and animated films use Virtual rather than physical cameras and are therefore 00:19:07.500 --> 00:19:13.260 much easier to convert to 3D but as 3DS 00:19:10.980 --> 00:19:17.820 users can attest they have their own drawbacks including crummy resolution 00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:22.620 and even crummier viewing angles with all these problems in mind it's no 00:19:19.620 --> 00:19:24.660 surprise that by 2016 just six years 00:19:22.620 --> 00:19:31.559 after being thrust into the mainstream production of 3D TVs by all major brands 00:19:27.840 --> 00:19:34.500 ceased 4K Blu-ray doesn't support 3D at 00:19:31.559 --> 00:19:38.820 all nor do any modern consoles and as far as we know there are no 3D TV 00:19:36.840 --> 00:19:42.720 channels still available making it effectively dead 00:19:40.320 --> 00:19:47.039 there are still Niche pockets of 3D enthusiasts though to my knowledge 00:19:44.700 --> 00:19:52.860 NVIDIA's final 3D Vision capable driver can still play Old stereo 3D games and 00:19:50.280 --> 00:19:58.919 the latest is from I think 2020. Voodoo apparently still supports 3D and these 00:19:55.919 --> 00:20:01.559 current model projectors from JVC still 00:19:58.919 --> 00:20:05.580 include robust 3D support for the handful of 3D Blu-rays that are still 00:20:03.360 --> 00:20:09.600 being produced but due to the complexity of shooting live action films in 3D many 00:20:07.980 --> 00:20:15.539 of them have 3D implemented in a way that's just kind of cheap and gimmicky 00:20:12.419 --> 00:20:17.640 looking because it's added in post so I 00:20:15.539 --> 00:20:22.200 it's in the script I doubt they sell very well but we know that for a fact 00:20:19.799 --> 00:20:26.280 based on having actually gone to the store I don't know maybe the new Avatar 00:20:24.480 --> 00:20:30.660 is going to kick start another 3D Renaissance I don't know they have a kid 00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:33.780 now and there's water um seems compelling enough to spend 13 00:20:32.220 --> 00:20:37.799 years of your life working on right well maybe we can buy another 8 000 TV right 00:20:35.700 --> 00:20:42.600 or maybe you could be compelled to spend some money on our sponsor jackery 00:20:40.500 --> 00:20:46.200 jackery makes solar ready portable power stations designed to improve life on the 00:20:44.340 --> 00:20:50.760 go by providing that sweet sweet power Outdoors whenever and wherever you need 00:20:48.660 --> 00:20:54.600 it they're Explorer 1500 portable power station has enough juice to keep all 00:20:52.620 --> 00:20:59.280 your devices moving like jackrabbits its huge 1500 watt hour capacity and 1800 00:20:57.120 --> 00:21:02.760 watt output rate allows up to seven devices to be plugged in simultaneously 00:21:01.080 --> 00:21:06.720 and it only takes four hours to charge from zero to eighty percent so you can 00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:10.740 keep living large Off the Grid so check out the Explorer 1500 at the link below 00:21:08.520 --> 00:21:14.880 and get 10 off with code Linus Tech tips if you like this video check out our 00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:19.380 video on the Looking Glass holographic monitor another attempt at making 00:21:16.620 --> 00:21:22.880 game-changing 3D display Tech but one that actually could have a ton of 00:21:20.520 --> 00:21:22.880 potential
