Electrograph is set to premiere the USA's "firsty residential 3D gaming system" with this new-fangled LCD display: the Philips 3D WOWvx. Standing tall and wide at 42'' (or short and not so wide at 20''), they'll unveil it during the Cedia Expo, which takes place September 4-7 in Denver.
Bla de bla de bla. How the heck does it work? Well, the "multiview lenticular technology" is used in combination with integrated display signal processing, which provides "full control over the quality and depth effect characteristics of the picture." So they say, it's far superior to other VR devices.
“There is nothing more addicting to kids, teens and even adults than modern video games," said Jeff Jerome, director of product management for Electrograph Systems, Inc. (I think he may have forgotten about drugs). "In fact, many underutilized home theaters are now serving as supersized game rooms. So imagine the appeal of true 3D gaming – without the glasses – that the whole family can play. This introduction opens up a whole new category for CEDIA installers, who can now offer their existing residential customers the latest technology trend. The system produces such stunning 3D effects that most players actually forget it’s a game."
It's also said the gaming experience is "far less confining" and can accommodate multiple players in a wide range of viewing angles while giving real “out-of-screen” 3D effects. Displays are based on a full high-definition 1920x1080 LCD panel resolution and offer 1500:1 contrast as well as true-color representation.
