At CES 2012, Panasonic Corporation, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Sony Corporation and X6D Limited (XPAND 3D) are exploring the first demonstration of compatibility among 3D displays and 3D active shutter glasses supporting the Full HD 3D Glasses Initiative standard.
The Full HD 3D Glasses Initiative licenses RF (Bluetooth®) and IR based communication protocols between consumer 3D active shutter glasses and 3D displays such as televisions, projectors and 3D theaters with XPAND active shutter technology.
The Full HD 3D Glasses Initiative license also includes multiple types of infrared (IR) system protocols between 3D active shutter glasses and 3D displays, ranging from the protocols jointly developed by Panasonic and XPAND 3D*, to the proprietary protocols of Samsung and Sony, respectively.
The Full HD 3D Glasses Initiative brings together the world's leading 3D TV manufacturers and 3D technology providers for the benefit of consumers. Glasses utilizing 3D active shutter technology benefits consumers in that they enable Full HD 3D picture quality to be displayed to each eye, depending on the 3D displays.
There are two types of licenses: one for TV/Projector/Emitter and one for 3D eyewear. Each license has three licensed technologies and several product categories to choose from. The license program includes verification procedure for licensee products before the product is sold in the market. The verification program ensures the compliant products work seamlessly with other compliant products consumers own.
