3D LAPTOP TO WATCH STEREPSCOPIC MOVIES Introduction
3D LAPTOP TO WATCH STEREOSCOPIC MOVIES, VIDEOS, IMAGES AND PICTURES
This unique notebook was one of only several ever produced during 3D madness several years ago. With a specially built screen and a pair of paralyzed or anaglyph glasses you will be able to enjoy the beauty of real life images from a collection of movies, games, animations, and pictures that have been stored on an external hard drive for your viewing pleasure. Acer's 3D notebook is aimed at lovers of film and multimedia. With the help of 3D glasses, every film, photo and game can be experienced in a new dimension.
TECHNOLOGY
Acer has placed a special filter over the screen and included a polarizing filter in the form of a pair of sunglasses. Both approaches have the same goal: an especially realistic illusion of depth within games, films and photographs. Acer has used an all-rounder hardware set-up with an ATI Radeon CPU.
FEATURES
Three things differentiate this 3D notebook from a normal one: a special film over the TFT screen, special software which can calculate both halves of a 3D image in real time, and polarized glasses. The software, called TriDef Ignition, converts the images of a film or 3D game into a stereoscopic image. For each media, TriDef Ignition creates a stereoscopic counterpart (a process that exists in its purest form if you were to use a stereoscopic camera to film from two slightly offset perspectives). The result of this video processing is encoded into the image which appears on screen, a blurry mess if you are not wearing the glasses.

DESCRIPTION
3D Player is a multi-purpose player for viewing stereo movies, videos, pictures and DVDs. In addition, it also allows you to view real-time video from capture devices.
Since this player is based on DirectShow, it can handle almost any media format, including AVI, MPEG, WMV and ASF. Video can be encoded in several different stereoscopic formats. The Stereoscopic Player supports a wide range of 3D hardware, including anaglyph stereo glasses, 3D stereo shutter glasses, stereoscopic monitors and projection systems.
