The main problem, which others also complain about, are the 3D glasses which make your eyes and the brain behind them go crazy. Avatar was a 3D movie which, despite being almost three hours long, managed not to provoke that many headaches.
With all this in mind I can’t but wonder if a 3D TV network could be successful or not. Would you like to watch 3D shows all day long? Could your eyes take all the extra strain or would you settle for regular TV shows and go for 3D movies only on special occasions?
I am asking you all these questions as three major names in the entertainment business, Discovery Communications, Sony Corporation and IMAX Corporation have decided to create a TV network dedicated to only 3D content. The announcement, made at the CES 2010 in Las Vegas today is certainly surprising but also very logic. More and more 3D shows and games are being conceived already which means a 3D-based TV network is bound to happen.
The 24/7 dedicated 3D TV network is planned for the U.S.A. and it sounds pretty promising. After all, the names behind this joint venture have lots of 3D shows worth seeing. On the other hand, I’d still be waiting for autostereoscopic 3D TVs that don’t require the use of any special glasses to watch such shows.
With a dedicated 3D TV network in place, more consumers will probably start moving on to 3D panels capable of bringing their favorite 3D content to their homes. Discovery, Sony and IMAX will be equal partners in this first 3D TV network and they will bring lots of shows to the table including natural history, space, exploration, adventure, engineering, science and technology, motion pictures and shows for children.
Actual details about the future 3D TV network have not been unveiled at this time but we expect to hear more about it in the very near future.
