Thread: 3DS

I was wondering when the next Nintendo portable was coming out.

I also was wondering when the first holographic 3D display would be used in a consumer product. I'm impressed.

You adjust how far things pop out relative to one another.



Actually... does it work by holography? If it was true holography it should still appear 3D in videos because it should be able to pick up parallax shifts. Apparently it does not...


EDIT: I kind of figured it worked something like this, considering that you don't see a 3D image on a video camera:

The image is divided into strips, one going to the left eye and one going to the right eye. The 3D slider controls the width of the strips, more or less, and in that way control the difference in angle between the two images... I think.
