Stereoscopic 3D Content at Home
TDVision Systems unveils TDVCodec, the worlds first 2D and MPEG compatible stereoscopic format that maintains 2D and MPEG compatibility with legacy systems at the 2008 National Association of Broadcasters show (NAB) in Las Vegas, NV.
Video streams encoded in TDVCodec format are viewable in all existing 2D set top boxes, DVD/Blu-ray players and presented on 2D televisions with no loss in color, resolution or frame rate. The same digital video stream can also be reproduced using TDVReady devices and PCs with TDVision’s Dejaview software and visualized in true 3D stereoscopic displays such as 3D Ready DLP televisions (Samsung & Mitsubishi) or by using the portable and immersive TDVisor from TDVision.
TDVision will also be showing a set of Blu-ray discs with content encoded using the TDVCodec format running in 2D on the PlayStation3 and 3D running on the PC connected to the stereoscopic displays. Demonstrated Blu-rayâ„¢ content includes a dimensionalized 3D Star Wars clip from In-Three, 3D reels from 21st Century 3D, and content from ParadiseFX and Intuitive Surgical.
TDVision will also be showing a live 3D camera demo by the use of 21st Century 3D’s 3DP2 camera connected directly to TDVision’s TDVisor. This will demonstrate the complete implementation from acquisition, encoding, and decoding to visualization for the complete 3D echo system.
TDVision Systems will be presenting April 14-17 at the NAB show located at the Las Vegas Convention Center, Central Hall exhibit number 9042.
