3D Display Technologies

Generally there are three widely use 3D display technologies, all based on the principles of stereoscopic projection:

  • Anaglyph - red/green or red/blue images with glasses filtering out one colour or the other
  • Polarisation - technique used in cinemas, with two images projected with different polarisations, a silvered screen and polarised glasses
  • Shutter Glasses - technique used by the new 3D televisions, where each alternating frame represent the left or right views.
