Toshiba To Launch No-Glasses 3D TV This Year

Posted by Soulskill on from the harder-to-hold-than-a-3ds dept.

angry tapir writes "Toshiba is readying two 3D televisions that can produce images with the illusion of depth but don't require the user to wear glasses, the company said Monday. It will launch the televisions in Japan in December. Toshiba will offer a 12-inch model and a 20-inch model. They'll cost around ¥120,000 (US$1,430) and ¥240,000 respectively. Toshiba's new TVs have a thin sheet of small lenses in front of the display. This splits light from the screen and sends it to nine points in front of the TV."

    Honestly, this "3d" stuff doesn't look that good, anyway. Whether I'm watching a "2d" movie or a "3d" movie doesn't matter to me in the slightest. That means I'm not going to waste money on an overly expensive television for something that I don't even care about. What a waste.
