It’s a world in 3 dimensions: Viewsonic goes 3D at CES
Wouldn’t it be cool to have a monitor that displayed most of your content in 3D? Viewsonic thinks so, and unveiled a line of new 3D devices at CES 2009.
Viewsonic displayed two new 3D products with the VX2265WM desktop LCD monitor and the PJD6220-3D portable projector. Of course, to see the 3-D, glasses are required. They were not the cheap cardboard red and blue ones, but NVIDIA GeForce 3D Vision glasses.
They displayed a game of Tomb Raider: Underworld that was very impressive, according to reports, in pure 3D. The glasses do need to be charged, but once full, they’re good for 40-50 hours.
The Viewsonic VX2265WM is a 120Hz desktop LCD monitor with a (almost full) resolution of 1680 x 1050 HD. It can play over 350 existing video game titles in full 3D, and that’s not all. The device is fully Windows certified and uses SRS HD sound technology with stereo speakers that are blended seamlessly into the design.
It seems that video and companies are traveling down the 3D path. The new monitor will debut in a few weeks and be priced at around $399, so feel free to start saving now for the future of entertainment.
