3-D TV is hit, more innovations needed to make it blockbuster


Innovation at times is not only the mantra of success but also happens to be the lifeblood of a civilization and due to the absence of the same, we lose momentum and the life becomes futile. Isn’t it? But this is not the case with the worldwide entertainment industry as counting on 2009’s biggest blockbuster Avatar, foremost TV manufacturers are all set to find out a new alternative. It is the saga of 3-D TVs and if everything goes in the right direction, Hollywood is going to have this future before long.

It has already been learnt that celebrated worldwide TV manufacturers are placing a big bet on 3-D video with exceptional high-end televisions scheduled for commercial release this year.

Now the question remains will the same become victorious. Even though it is too early to predict, there is already a huge thrill among commoners and only in the last week, Consumer Electronics Show attendees, putting on dorky glasses, crowded booths of Sony, Panasonic, LG, Toshiba, Mitsubishi and Samsung only to have a look at the big-screen 3-D TVs on display. The development is impressive, without a shred of doubt, and it has made a number of video companies consider that 3-D TV will be huge this year.

Will you go for the same? This is a big question also since only a few persons will be ready to wear dorky glasses to watch a 3-D soccer game. There is the need of other things as well and these include 3-D-capable Blu-ray player or, in the future, cable box. Besides, you’ll have to pay money for special Blu-ray discs that are clearly labeled to make use of the same 3-D tech as your TV and glasses. So look before you leap since there is a scarcity of all these apposite tools in the market.

But this reality is failing to cow leading manufacturers as they have the conviction that consumers will come along for the 3-D ride ultimately. The Consumer Electronics Association reckons that 4 million 3-D TV sets will be sold in 2010, the majority of them in the fourth quarter.
