I have just installed a set of 3D glasses and wonder just how much people who have them, use them.

Thanks for your participation !

Best regards to all

I would be interested in a review of the glasses.  Have seen them adverstised.  How do they work and are they worth trying???  Thanks.   ;D

I read something about a pair of 3D glasses that was getting great reviews. They were only 70 bucks US or so which isnt much to try them

I got some free with my Ti4600, but I've never tried them!

The 3D glasses I set up are from E-dimensional.

I've always thought about these E-dimentional things since the adverts and pete's review started appearing. I've just never been bothered to hand over my hard earned quids to get a pair... besides I've got so many tangled joystick/keyboard/mouse/network/power cables tangled about my desk, adding another would make things difficult. ::) :)

Is there any similarity in these things and the cheap 'blue/red' plastic things they used to have in the theatres?
They were a bit before my time but I got to try them at Warner Bros World in Queensland a few years ago. They were apparently only for use with movies that had been photographed in a specific format, so the images would appear to 'leave the screen' and come towards you.  :o

The reason I ask, is I am almost blind in one eye, but still got the effect of the '3D items' coming out from the screen. If they are based on the same principal, these new ones may still work for me, but I fear this mention of 'left and right' adjustment could kill the whole idea for me.  ;D ;)

The ones I remember were Red/Green and are called 'Anaglyphic' or something like that.

The latest glasses have two LCD lenses which can be darkened to obscure an eye and this signal is synched to two horizontal spatially separated images such that the correct eye sees the correct image whilst the other is darkened out.  This is carried out ideally at a frame rate of 100hZ and the brain reassembles these as a 'stereo' image.  It is not 'true' 3D since it only occurs in a horizontal plane.

Here endeth the lesson ......
