LG & Samsung Battle It Out Over 3D Glasses

The executives at Samsung do not believe that 3D glasses can work when you’re laying on your side. LG plans to prove them wrong. Samsung’s 3D glasses technology features active shutters, and they’re hoping to make this an industry standard with the help of Sony and Panasonic.

Meanwhile LG has created film-patterned-retarder technology for their televisions, which eliminates flickers and blurriness. They have the support of Vizio and Toshiba just to name a few. While the 3D effect of glasses diminishes when lying down, it still works. A lot of what drives the commercial success of 3D TVs in this early developmental stage is the ease of use of viewing.
