Technology is advancing leaps and bounds, with the advent of new innovations. If we consider the visions such as images, photographs, holographs, videos we would find considerable changes taking place this decade. Nearly two or three decades back we tried to project colors onto the screen, and the color pictures were the result. Since then we tried harder and finally, the result is 3D Images and Motion Pictures.
This is relatively new, and almost every one of us wants to visualize 3D movies, the graphics hardware, and software manufacturing company– NVIDIA Corporation has released its new 3D Vision Video Player to use on normal PCs and laptops.
What is a 3D view?
3D stands for the third dimension. This means that any 3D picture or video has not only the length and width but also the depth or it is stereoscopic in scientific terms. This makes the 3D view more vivid and clear. Moreover, 3D view is more realistic and live-connecting, simply saying the image looks exactly like the object. This technology is not just used in making movies and photography, but also in fields of education and research.
