The new technological innovation and the trend that is currently dominating the market is the 3D LED TV with Smart Apps. It lets you watch movies and other content in 3D; while the smart features let you connect to the internet via Wi-Fi and play games on the TV.

These days every big movie is released with a 3D version, as the demand and quality of 3D content increases across the board. In fact, such is the success of 3D that many broadcasters, including BBC, are transmitting a substantial part of the events in the London Olympics in 3D for the benefit of the viewers. Watching movies and sports in 3D is fast becoming the acceptable norm amongst the modern TV viewers.
As far as 3D Technology comparison goes, there are two basic divisions – namely active and passive. Active technology means heavy glasses that need to be charged constantly, flickering and cross talk. The glasses uses shuttering technology that send different images to both right and left eye and the glasses open and shut alternatively to register these images in the mind of the viewer. The advantage of this technology is the depth of 3D images that can be enjoyed by the viewer, while the biggest disadvantage is that the heavy glasses with flickering images are known to give users headache after a while. On the other hand the glasses that use passive technology are much lighter, do not require to be recharged, do not cause headache and are relatively inexpensive. Among the big brands Samsung and Sony use active technology, while LG 3D TV and Toshiba TV use passive technology.

    1. I agree that gifting a TV will cost your pocket a bit.Whenever you gift a LED TV to anyone, who is going to say ‘no’ and then you can expect a bigger gift from them in the return.

  3. Nice update on basic 3D tech and its reach; still a niche segment, not mainstream.
