3D Displays May Be Hazardous To Young Children
SchlimpyChicken writes "Turns out 3D television can be inherently dangerous to developing children, and perhaps to adults as well. There's a malaise in children that can prevent full stereopsis (depth perception) from developing, called strabismus or lazy-eye. It is an abnormal alignment of the eyes in which the eyes do not focus on the same object — kind of like when you watch a 3D movie. As a result, depth perception is compromised. Acting on a hunch, the guys over at Audioholics contacted Mark Pesce, who worked with Sega on its VR Headset over 15 years ago — you know, the headset that never made it to market. As it turns out, back then Sega uncovered serious health risks involved with children consuming 3D and quickly buried the reports, and the project. Unfortunately, the same dangers exist in today's 3D, and the electronics, movie, and gaming industries seem to be ignoring the issue. If fully realized, 3D just might affect the vision of millions of children and, according to the latest research, many adults, across the country." The Audioholics article is a good candidate for perusing with Readability — the pseudo-link popups are blinding.
Because stereoscopic vision is gained by the age of six or not at all. Six years old is the cut off for stereoscopic development.
No, we are all atheists now. No need for morals or ethics. As long as no one knows, it is all good.
You can take that to the bank, brother. Those fucks will do anything to get people to follow their lie of a god and their child molesting prophet.
Fuck Islam!!!!!
See? That didn't take long.
You are welcome on my lawn.
I suspect you were merely an idiot before, but you've recently graduated to troll.
Congratulations, I guess.
