Sharp 3D Monitor Next Year

dOxxx writes "Sharp is bringing out a 3D monitor next year that requires no special glasses. It took them one day to convert Quake to work with the monitor. They are already selling cellphones in Japan for the NTT DoCoMo network with scaled-down versions of the screen."

Umm...

Sharp's 3D monitor can be thought of as a TFT sandwich. The monitor contains two TFT panels separated by a parallax barrier, which directs pixel images to two separate regions so that each eye receives a slightly different image.
In the end, the brain formulates the signals so that the image appears to be a three-dimensional object, Nakagawa said.

if MP3's can damage your ears, then what's this gonna do to my eyes and brain!?!?!?

  Nice .sig, jackass. Not only do you show that you're a stuck up little bastard, but that you're dumb enough to be really proud of it. After all, 25% of slashdot doesn't have anything good to say, because they're just too *NEW*, right?

Yep. Oh, did I mention my -2 setting for Anonymous Cowards?

Elitist? No. Just someone who figures the most recent accounts were subscribed for trolling. If you have something worthwhile to say I'll still see it--I browse at +3, so a 5 comment will show up. Besides, my UID is so high that my friends with UIDs at 4 digits and below regard me with suspicion. Sadly, I had never heard of Slashdot until Fall 1999 when my boss introduced me to the Linux Trinity (or, Trifeca, for the heathens): Slashdot, lwn.net/daily, and Freshmeat.
