Bah. Until someone implements 3D goggles with full-on 360 degree vision (i.e. you turn your heads and the character does) I'm not interested.

I've tried out three disdinctive 3D techs. Nvidia has had 3D support in the driver for at least 4 years.

neural network?

Its data's head captain Jean Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise!

Many of ATI's cards done have dual DVI anyway, but if its a driver issue thats hardly impossible to fix.

I played with this at Blizzcon and it was pretty impressive. I wouldn't buy it for that kind of dough, but I was impressed how deep the 3D images were. They had WoW running on it.

Attn: All news websites. Stop posting stupid "OMFG! 3D Monitor!" Without an actual link to said website WITH a picture of it in action of what it should look like. I'm tire of seeing story after story with no pictures and then never hearing about it ever again. Yes this one showed the monitor but it was an LCD monitor. Sure doesn't look like it'll do real 3d.

I was wondering how people who wear glasses can wear the special glasses for the monitor. But I remembered this nifty monitor that doesn't require glasses!

Wonder if they can alter the drivers needed to work on this monitor.

I'd be happy to see this tech take off and become standard with flat panel LCDs. Assuming it's cheap to implement, which it doesn't sound like it is. I am sure it could appeal to the mainstream market too if some people came up with some cool 3d UI stuff. There is still a lot to be done for display tech, and the 3d display market really needs a kick as in the ass.

Inside the game adapter is a hardware neural network that processes depth queues such as differences in color, brightness, shadows and size of objects.

What. The. Fuck.

The card renders 2 images, which the montor then displays, in polarized light. Nueral network my ass. Marketing jargon writers need to shot when they say this stuff.

there was something similar at gdc at the nvidia booth earlier this year too. you had to wear 3d glasses. it was interesting, but definately not something i would use on the regular

That's just dumb. You can get 3D with the right software drivers and a pair of LCD glasses without buying a new monitor. The Nvidia driver splits the image into a right eye image and a left eye image, then drives the screen so that left and right eye images are shown alternatively, frame by frame. The LCD glasses cover your left eye when the image for the right eye is shown, and vice versa.

Some NVidia cards used to have these things bundled with them.

Just so you know, this is not new technology. SGI had a polarized light 3d view monitor back in the early 1990s. (At least, that's when I got to play on one.) I didn't have any headaches playing it either, and I thought it was a pretty cool idea. I'm glad to this invention come back too.
