That was speculation: "Sounds like they are using ..." Sorry, it was annoying since I'd just posted where the glasses could easily be gotten. And, yeah, they don't look like the old red/blue ones at all (hooray). Chuck in 3D!!!!! (more hooray). MM

The reason I posted was to give a simple way of making Pulfrich glasses by using modified sunglasses. This I now learn, will not work with the new patented (patents==greed) system. It was not speculation. I have a bunch of 3d images on my website using the red blue glasses. Pulfrich has been around for a long time. It is not compatible with the theater projection systems. So when I hear that a non compatible system is being promoted it sets the alarm bells off. The number of exiting 3d formats, generates a lot of confusion. The promotion on this has been rather bad. Perhaps because I do not watch TV. I have not seen this discussed much in any of the mainstream "news" forums, hearing about this only yesterday. Perhaps that is the intent. To wow an ignorant public with more noise. 3D is a fad that has a 20 or so year cycle to it. A significant portion of the population (mostly male) can not see it.[*] Ironically, that is the demographic which they attempt to sell it into. -julie [*] Search for the work on how the brain sees depth by Bela Julez.
