First 3D TV and 3D Blu-ray

History
3D imaging dates to the beginning of photog-
raphy.
In 1844, David Brewster introduced the
Stereoscope, a device that could take photo-
graphic pictures in 3D. It was then improved by
Louis Jules Duboscq and a famous picture of
Queen Victoria was displayed at The Great Exhi-
bition in 1851.
By the Second World War, stereoscopic 3D
cameras for personal use were already fairly com-
mon. HD TELEVISION
The 3D movie development was parallel to the
development of 3D pictures and images.
Already in 1855 the Kinematoscope was invented, that is the Stereo Animation
Camera. The first anaglyph movie
was produced in 1915 and in 1922
the first public 3D movie was dis-
played -The Power of Love!.
In 1935 the first 3D color movie
was produced. In the fifties, when TV
became popular in the United States,
many 3D movies were produced.
The first movie was the Bwana
Devil from United Artists that could
be seen all across the USA in 1952.
One year later, in 1953, came the
3D movie House of Wax which also
featured 2D sound. Alfred Hitch-
cock originally made his film Dial M
for Murder in 3D, but for the purpose
of maximizing profits, the movie was
released in 2D because not all cinemas
were able to display 3D films.

Technology
Turn on your new 3D DLP HDTV, slide on your active 3D
glasses, and watch the images jump off the high definition
screen and into your home theater.
The extreme speed of the DLP chip, combined with 3D
technology, makes it all possible.
A processor in the TV generates nine slightly different views
corresponding to the different angles. From almost any loca-
tion, a viewer catches a different image in each eye.
