[June 22, 2010] LOOKING PAST SIDE-BY-SIDE 3D BROADCASTING
In these early days of 3-D broadcasting, side-by-side technology appears to be the dominant choice. Side-by-side methods are not perfect, however. Mainly, there are limitations in picture resolution, because the side-by-side technique displays two 1080p 3-D images electronically stitched together. And there are a number of varieties of side-by-side transmission, developed by other companies, making it impossible to guarantee interoperability between various broadcast signals and TV sets. Today, 3-D glasses that work with one manufacturer’s TV set won’t work with another brand. Sensio Technologies, has developed a different dual-stream scheme for the high-quality decoding of quincunx (checkerboard) compressed stereoscopic formats.
