Blu-ray Disc Association Announces Final 3D Specification
“Blu-ray 3DTM” Expected to Reach Consumers in 2010

2010 International CES

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) today announced the finalization and release of the “Blu-ray 3DTM” specification. The specification, which represents the work of the leading Hollywood studios and consumer electronic and computer manufacturers, will enable the home entertainment industry to bring the 3D experience into consumers’ living rooms on Blu-ray Disc, the most capable high definition home entertainment platform.

The “Blu-ray 3D” specification fully leverages the technical advantages of the Blu-ray Disc format to deliver unmatched picture quality as well as uniformity and compatibility across the full range of Blu-ray 3D products, both hardware and software. Notably, the specification allows every Blu-ray 3D player and movie to deliver Full HD 1080p resolution to each eye, thereby maintaining the industry leading image quality to which Blu-ray Disc viewers are accustomed. Moreover, the specification is display agnostic, meaning that Blu-ray 3D products will deliver the 3D image to any compatible 3D display, regardless of whether that display uses LCD, Plasma or other technology and regardless of what 3D technology the display uses to deliver the image to the viewer’s eyes.

This is truly awesome news. I absolutely love 3D gaming and could very well revolutionize it if enough people try it out. C'mon AMD\ATI implement your own solution. Your customers will love you for it. To be able to watch full HD 3D movies will be so cool. I can't wait for both the players and screens to become available.

Sounds like it will fail just like all other 3d tv solutions have, no one wants to wear glasses to watch tv. They need to try and find a way to have 3d without glasses then they may have a hit on their hands.

3D without the glasses would be the best possible solution, but can it be done. If so I have no idea how this could be implemented. But after a few months of 3D gaming, I really see this as the future.

That sounds good. I can't wait to see how it is implemented. Hopefully it has the same depth and pop as Nvidia's 3D solution.

I think this has actually been possible since the 50's but most implementations require sitting directly in front of the screen.

How do you know if your Blu-ray player supports this new standard?
