A few years ago 3D televisions were to take over the world.
Every tech company was developing either the screens, glasses, games or movies
for them.
This went on for a while until profit margins were going down the
cliff thus production reduced and some company are no longer producing them.
To be on the same page a 3DTV is television that conveys
depth perception to the viewer by employing techniques such as stereoscopic
display, multi-view display, 2D-plus-depth, or any other form of 3D display. –

This technology had been around for years but it was around
2010 that most companies rolled out their TV sets.
We were all excited when they come out but later off this died off slowly as getting all these factors together was expensive and by extension not worth it.To fully experience the 3D reality a couple
of things has to be in place.
First and obviously you need to have a TV screen that has this
capabilities and tweak the setting to 3D. Secondly whatever clip you want to
watch has to be in the 3D format. Lastly glasses. You have to compatible 3D
glasses and also face the TV at a specific angle and distance as well to get
the best view.
Major TV producers like LG, Samsung, Panasonic and Sony have
stopped the production of these screens as sales dropped main reason being
customers are not willing to go through all the torture stated above just to
watch TV.
All hope is not lost as cinemas and Movie Theater are still
in business for this kind of display. Personally I will prefer paying for a 3D
movie in the cinema halls and don’t mind the glasses – it’s a two hour show it’s
worth it
Now TV
makers are instead focusing on newer technologies such as HDR, which displays a
wider and richer range of colors, much brighter whites, and much deeper, darker
blacks.
