I too have been playing with these monitors, we have a couple of the 21" touch 
screen versions. They seem to work very well for viewing models and such, but 
have a very limited depth range. 
 
Has anyone managed to develop a 3D environment that you can walk around, some 
terrain perhaps or a first person view type sim and achieved good results?
 
I found that the shallow depth range limited it uses in this type of 3D work as 
objects in the far distance become very blurry. 
 
Regards,
 
Kim.

Niel,

have a look at 
http://www.business-sites.philips.com/assets/Downloadablefile//Philips-3D-Interface-White-Paper-13725.pdf
It explains the extra information that is needed in the first few pixels to 
enable the 3D mode.

We have got it up and running at our lab en where also surprised by the results.

Regards,

Robbert

Subject: [osg-users] Philips WOW TV displays...

Hi All,

Not sure I've asked this before. If I have, sorry.

I've got access to a couple of Philips WOW TV's for a few days, and a colleague 
has been playing with them for the past week. One of the supporting 
applications is written in OSG, and generates a split screen image. The left 
half is the standard 3D view, whilst the right half is the depth map.

Now I know that I can set this up myself, however we suspect that there is more 
to it than this, as we've taken a screen grab of this screen image and sent it 
to the display, and it still doesn't show it as a combined 3D with depth feel. 
Does anyone know anything about this display, and perhaps could shed some light 
on what we need to do to get a normal OSG split screen to work with it?

We suspect that there are a few calls that we are missing. Any pointers would 
be really useful.

By the way, using the supplied OSG viewing with our room it looks really quite 
cool. I was a bit of a sceptic at first, but it seems that Philips may have 
something really neat here. If you get a chance, check it out.

Regards

Neil.
