JVC Pulls A 72-Inch 3D HDTV Out Of Its Hat At CEATEC

Philips may have shown off their 50-inch Quad Full Autostereoscopic 3D HDTV first at CEATEC, but straight on their heels was a no-funny-glasses-needed 72-inch display. Created by partners JVC and Japanese National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, the 72-inch 3D display featured 1920 x 1080 resolution and a 20 degree 3D viewing angle on both sides. The display uses a set of full HD projectors to project images onto the screen from the back of the set with up to 100 million pixels. By aligning the projectors to coincide with certain images, the lighting is optimized so as to appear to bounce off the screen enabling the 3D effect. Not only do the two companies plan to mass-produce the 3D monster by 2011, they think the technology could be used for 200-300 inch 3D displays!
