I didn't realise it was happening so soon - I thought the World Cup was going to be the first event but the Arsenal v MU game was shown in 3D in London..

I still don't understand why you'd need a 3D tv to watch it though... does anyone (Ferni) understand the science behind needing a new TV to watch 3D? |

I'm not totally sure why we need new tvs, i think it's something to do with needing higher refresh rates to display 2 different pictures (one for each eye). It's not the same 3d that has been around for years, this is a bit different.... |

don't know how it would have gone down at the pub. Although the plus is that there wouldn't be any fights cos you don't hit people wearing glasses!

Wouldn't be a pub thing really. Wearing the glasses would take away from talking to other people.

THIS IS MORE FOR MOVIES
How Eclipse 3D Works
When one eye views the full-color image and the other eye views the monochrome image, the mind perceives a full-color image (not half-color). The color comes from the full-color image. The depth comes from the monochrome image.
Why Eclipse 3D Displays are so Bright
Creative use of the human visual system allows full-color 3D to be added to a display with little cost in brightness. In the Eclipse 3D format, the monochrome image is perceived with enhanced brightness sensitivity similar to night vision. Meanwhile, the full-color image is perceived with normal daylight vision. A balanced 3D image is obtained when the monochrome image is about 25% as bright as the full-color image. This represents a brightness gain of about 4X in the monochrome image.
Some light sources in displays produce a surplus of yellow light. This surplus light can be used to display a second image. In this way, Eclipse 3D displays can minimize the loss of brightness to the fourth primary color. Eclipse 3D projectors can be four times as bright as comparable polarized projectors.
Seeing is Believing
The Eclipse 3D image below is displayed in the side-by-side format. The left image is printed in a single primary color while the right image is printed in full-color. When the images are viewed with a stereoscope, a full-color 3D image is observed. (Note: If the combined 3D image has a red shift in the color, the red image is either too bright or not monochromatic enough. To improve the color, try putting a red filter over your left eye.) View more images here.
In order to maximize the viewing comfort, the left and right images should be calibrated to the display device. The Eclipse 3D technology contains a patent pending method to calibrate the images to a display in order to maximize the viewing comfort. The image below assumes that the display produces an sRGB color profile. If the image is uncomfortable to view on your monitor, you might try a different monitor such as an LCD monitor
