3-D TV through the Ages
There are, of course, several possible
methods of accomplishing Stereoscopic Television
Fundamentals of Television, 1930
1928
1953 Business Week headline 3-D Invades TV
2009 NAB Digital Cinema Summit Dr. Martin Banks,
UC Berkeley first evidence that a
vergence- accommodation conflict can cause
fatigue and discomfort.
1991
2001
38
First Evidence?

• Studies made by Hartridge, Kletzky and others
  indicate that one of the most common causes of
  eye-strain consists in an unconscious attempt on
  the part of the observer to modify the normal
  coördination of the ocular reflexes of
  accommodation and convergence.
• - Leonard Thompson Troland, Ph.D., The American
  Journal of Physiological Optics, v. 12, n. 3, p.
  381, July 1926

The Truth About Stereoscopic Television
42
IBC Daily News, September 12
Conference Today Wood calls for health warning
on 3D television
David Wood, EBU
"I plan to concentrate on getting broadcasters to
take the issues around eye fatigue seriously," he
said. "I want a government health warning on all
3D products and shows, but it won't say that 3D
kills like cigarettes do."What this means is
that when broadcasters screen 3D content, they
should mention up front that there are viewers
who cannot fuse left and right images," he added.
"Shows should at the very least carry a caution
that viewers should not watch 3D for long
periods."

This Isnt the Year of 3-D TV (1st 1928)

• Infinite-distance parallel interpupillary
• Set for 30 screen,
• 60 screen diverges
• 15 screen too close
• TV screen really close
• Except holographic
• and moving-mirror
• displays, convergence
• does not match
• accommodation
