The bigger size of the monitor as well as the enhanced support for using stereo 3D content from a PC, as well as consumer devices such as Playstation 3 console,
Hoodwinked Blu-ray Review
The Movie
Incredibly, the story of Little Red Riding Hood had yet to be adapted into a big-screen feature film back in 2005, an oversight handily resolved by the utterly entertaining Hoodwinked. But how to fill out an hour-plus with such a simple, well-worn tale? Expanding the backstory and context helps, but the real hook of Hoodwinked is its repetitious structure, made famous by Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon, as

Make Your Own Autostereoscopic 3D Display With the Help of a Printer
How about printing yourself an autostereoscopic 3D display or actually turning your existing 2D monitor into a 3D capable one that does not require you to wear any glasses to have a perception of depth. The user Cybereality has managed to create his own DIY autostereoscopic LCD monitor mod using parallax barrier printed on a normal printer and he explains how this can be made in the video above. He is using a transparency film with printed parallax barrier for his monitor and then aligns it to

Tamara Drewe Blu-ray Review
The Film
Trailers can be deceiving, and Tamara Drewe is one of those films where what you're promised isn't exactly what you get. All too often the result is that the best parts are in the preview and the final film seems like an extended director's cut of the trailer. Nothing could be further from the truth in this film, which has now arrived on Blu-ray. While it still is about the just slightly ugly duckling

Sony Wants You to Shoot in 3D Movies
Sony kicked off CES 2011 by announcing plans to get 3D technology into the hands of consumers—and not just for watching TV. The company announced it would launch new 3D Bloggie and Handycam camcorders so that consumers can shoot their own 3D movies.
"3D is far more than a science fiction gimmick designed to make the special effects dominate the story," explained Sony Chairman HowardStringer. "3D mimic the real world." As such, he thinks that mainstream consumers will

Study shocker! Mobile users piddle around on the internet while watching TV
Shocker of shockers, folks: people do more than just watch TV when they're watching TV. A study of over 8,000 willing individuals from Nielsen and Yahoo recently discovered that some 86 percent of mobile internet users tinker around on their devices while situated in front of the tube. It seems that Googling random facts, checking their Facebook news feed and seeing who has tweeted in the past 30 seconds were atop the list of activities to do while watching, but

The concept of light guns for games is something that some of you might remember from playing a long time ago on a console, but still refer as to a fun experience. However this concept has long been gone, due to technological changes and no new suitable games, although there were some tries to revive it. The modern way of doing things is with accelerometers and gyros in the form of so called “air mouse” products that are available by multiple companies. However these usually are

Short Test Video of BMW 740d in Stereo 3D Format
The last weekend we did some stereo 3D shots of a test BMW 740d car and I’ve used this opportunity to finally test the native stereoscopic 3D capabilities of the new Sony Vegas Pro 10 video editing software.

I know I’m a bit late with this review, but I just wanted to wait a bit more to see if some of the possible issues related to software 3D functionality can be resolved soon after the release of the HP Envy 17 3D Laptop. As well as get familiar with the product and the hardware and of course the specific things related to the new HD3D technology from AMD and the use of shutter glasses together with a 120Hz LCD screen.
