Will it be Worth Paying for a 3d Gaming Monitor?

By James Evans


Can you recall the old 3D movies of decades ago? Those movies had some corny 3 dimensional effects, but they also were still fun to look at. In making the on-screen action viewed in 3 dimensional, you were needed to wear red and blue 3D glasses. A while ago, this was pretty cool. Nowadays, there are possible ways of developing games and movies appear to be real 3D. Because of three dimensional movies similar to Avatar from James Cameron, this brand new hype is increasing momentum. The consumer carries a popular demand for 3 dimensional in their own residence. The marketplace has reacted to this demand by giving the production.

This era, there are hd televisions. A lot of modern television models now incorporate three-dimensional functionality. To watch movies in 3D, you'll still be required to wear appropriate glasses. Many of these televisions are based on active 3 dimensional shutter glasses. Others are dependant on passive 3-d glasses.

Time will only tell what type of these technologies becomes the dominant one. We will have to be happy with the 3d images systems we have now today, until one wins the battle. But 3D doesn't have to be limited by just movies, as it may also be used in games. Naturally, games are actually three-dimensional for quite some time already. But the main problem is usually that the 3 dimensional environment is projected on a 2 dimensional monitor screen.

Owing to technological progress, graphics cards are starting to generally be really powerful. Calculating two images and keeping up a decent frame rate, is starting to become feasible. The three dimensional graphics card's computed images can be shown by just a 3 dimensional monitor. Just like with the movies, you'd still have to wear three dimensional glasses in order to create the effect come to life. What I wish to see in the near future is a pair of three dimensional gaming glasses that are able to place the images right on your retina. A pair of glasses of this nature will really put you in the middle of the action. Game world immersion could be unlike anything the world population has ever seen.

But before we see such a technology, we have to make due with what we've got today. a three-dimensional gaming kit was launched by NVidia some time ago. This kit premiered with active shutter glasses. Only 1 eye at a time can see the image, because the glasses will shut alternating. A 3 dimensional effect would arise, if a computer game were to produce images for the left and right eye alternating. The trouble is that your own graphics card must compute twice the frames. You could possibly end up having low frame rates. Also, you'll still be required to invest in a compatible monitor yourself. So it can be quite expensive. However, the technology will end up a lot cheaper as time goes on, considering it always does!
