Then I saw Step Up 3D, a younger director’s much more recent masterful use of the medium.  I highly recommend Jon Chu’s feature for 3D viewing.

I’ve been working on a 3D research project; I heard from inventor Jimmie D. Songer, a pioneer of single-lens, single-camera 3D; and then, today, ISee3D.  That last wasn’t a grammatical error and typo.  Perhaps I should have said I saw ISee3D.

They, too, have been working on single-lens, single-camera 3D.  They’ve even done it at high speed for slow motion, and they showed me 3D endoscope footage shot in the interior of a red pepper.  But the best part of the demo was the little camera in a corner of a conference room, shooting live motion full-color 3D (displayed live on an ordinary 3D screen at the opposite corner of the room).

That was one camera with one lens, picking up 3D.  You can read more about it (including a technology white paper and their base patent) here: http://isee3d.com/

No, you can’t rush out and buy one just yet, but, if all goes well, attendees at next April’s NAB convention will see something developed even further.

The Chattanooga Times Free Press has an interview with Mike Melton and Robert Wolfe, who talked about the art of television repair at Melton’s TV Repair shop in Chattanooga, TN.

USANewsWeek.com reports that Sony Corporation is all set to develop 3-D TV without glasses and has joined the race with Toshiba Corporation. The company to first manufacture these televisions is going to get a lot of attention from the media and the market of technology and therefore win supremacy in the market of 3-D technology.

When Popular Mechanics recently talked to the king of 3D, James Cameron, about the upcoming Avatar re-release, theybrought up the 3D backlash controversy. His thoughts? The retaliation is right on target‚ for now. High-quality 3D, however, will prevail, Cameron says, to settle the debate.
