Apple I- Phone

LG is showcasing it’s new glass-free 3D display for mobile phones at CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas.

LG states that it sees a tremendous growth potential for 3D displays and that it is looking to debuting this new exciting wy to watch movies and play games on mobile phones.

The 4.3″ Touchscreen has a WVGA resolution (854×480 Pixels). The technology also provides exceptionally bright and flicker free pictures.

The 3D display uses an applied parallax barrier, which delivers a series of light blocking slits attached to the front LCD panel. These slits ensure that the left and right eye see different images thus giving the illusion of 3D.

The display also has straighter, more upright barriers that are very precisely aligned to the LCD panel. This technological advance not only means smoother, brighter, crosstalk-free images, but also a wider viewing angle than on previous parallax displays.

Apple has just been granted a patent on a technology that can produce 3D images without the need for glasses. The basic idea behind this is that the images are projected onto reflective and textured surfaces and are then bounced back into our left and right eyes resulting in a stereoscopic effect.

There are various advantages to this technology, for one it enables users to watch in 3D without the irritation of having to wear glasses and it also allows multiple users to view the images or videos simultaneously.

This technology is also a step ahead of current glassless 3D technology as it does not require the viewer to sit in one specific spot without moving. This technology allows users to move and still enjoy the benefits of 3D.

The patent was filed back in 2006 and has just been approved. We are not sure when we can see it in their products but the idea of 3D iPhones, iPods and iPads sounds cool.
