Calendars For Computer Monitors

3D is no longer reserved to the movie theater, nor is it strictly the domain of broadcast television or kids movies on DVD or Blu-Ray. The newest frontier in 3D technology is destined to be the family computer as a new glut of 3D displays and 3D monitors are set to try to enhance the user experience in ways never before imagined but don't expect them to be as affordable as current cheap LCD monitors.

How Do 3D Monitors Work?

Most of the new 3D display technologies build on the current standard for 3D that people are used to seeing in the movie theater. In order to view the 3D images on the computer screen a user must wear a pair of polarized glasses. These are not the old style red and blue filtered glasses, but a newer version of 3D technology that uses a special kind of polarization to separate the images into two parts (one intended for each eye).

In the theater, most movie companies use circular polarization, a technique that allows the wearer of the glasses to tilt their heads at any angle (in case they want to rest their head on their significant other) but in the more fixed position world of computers the alternative of linear polarization is also being used.
