Nvidia 3D Vision for notebook
It will make the notebooks multimedia powerhouses
Nvidia yesterday announced what seems to be a great leverage of the visual experience on notebooks. Termed as the 3D Vision, this should let the notebook manufacturers install 120Hz panels onto their machines to enable stereoscopic 3D vision technology. This upgrade is expected to produce never before seen gaming experience on notebooks. Asustek Computer, Clevo and MicroStar are in line to be among the first clients of NVIDIA’S this new technology.
Nvidia 3D Vision works with the 120Hz display along with shutter glasses that open and closes special shutters sixty times a second to create a magnificent three dimensional effect. Nvidia has worked closely with display manufacturers, including CPT, LG, CMO, and Samsung, to bring these panels to notebook platforms that will support the 3D vision technology.
This approach is very important from the point of view that notebooks are fast becoming the mainstream computing devices today. They are also becoming more and more powerful (take for example the Alienware series) to play games and high-definition videos. So a technology like this is not only needed, but can be well received also. Asus announces release of its G51J 3D laptop already in early December with Clevo and MicroStar International to follow in 2010.
“We look forward to bringing NVIDIA 3D Vision-capable notebooks to the market. The era of 3D is upon us, and immersive 3D gaming and movie watching is indeed an exciting proposition,” said Stephen Chien, worldwide sales and marketing vice president at Clevo – as reported by xbitlabs.
Along with Asus, other notebook vendors are also quite enthusiastic about this new technology. MSI says NVIDIA’s this technology is probably the best in its class. Acer Group is also planning a stereo 3D laptop, although it is probably not the one we are talking about. Besides, Dell, HP, Lenovo and Sony are also interested in stereo 3D-capable mobile computers.
