Review - eDimensional Stereo 3D glasses

April 2nd, 2008

I’ve seen adverts for 3d glasses for some time, the old TNT graphics cards use to come with support for ‘revelator’ glasses and the nVidia drivers had stero support built in for many years. However due to the way these glasses work you’ve always needed a CRT monitor with a high refresh rate (~120hz) to see the effect. Moving back to a mahoosive CRT and an ancient gfx card isn’t really an option if you want to play any newer games, so I (and I’m sure many others) have never really had a chance to try them out.

E-D 3d Glasses package

Recently I noticed an advert for these eDimensional Wireless 3D Glasses that claim to work on a standard LCD screen and promise you will “experience the latest in virtual reality technology with 3D images that float inside and outside of your monitor” in “all of your favorite gaming titles”. Hmmm, but as they were realatively cheap (sub £50) I thought I’d give them a go. There seems to be very little info on these glasses out there on the net post ‘05, which is about when nVidia stopped supporting it’s consumer stereo 3d driver. I though a quick review could be useful for anyone else interested in giving stereoscopic 3d gaming a try on an LCD.

This dude rocks, makes me wish I’d never given up playing the violin… but I don’t remember anyone mentioning they made electric ones when I was a kid. Bummer.

Wii browser launched!

December 22nd, 2006

Didn’t get ’round to blogging it, but I managed to pickup a Wii last week from HMV and have been enjoying playing it a lot (I’m a Pro at bowling now! :) .

Anyway I’ve just noticed on Digg that the Wii browser’s been launched and it apparently contains Flash & Ajax support. Woohoo, this could be very cool if it plays Flash games nicely… more to come I’m sure.
