TDV3d.com: TVD's New Portal Site is In-Your-Face... Literally!

Today (January 15, 2002) TDV Technologies Corporation announced the immediate availability of the first three-dimensional viewing system for the Internet. According to TVD Technologies Corp., ''The TVD system transforms still and moving computer images from standard 2D visuals to realistic 3D images that appear to float in space, revolutionizing entertainment, education and eCommerce Internet user experiences.''

Now, you'll be able to shop and surf through 3D content all from a central site. Don't have the glasses yet? No worries, all TDV content is viewable without distortion in standard 2D form. Renderings on the portal can be viewed first in 2D, and then in Stereovision 3D with just one mouse-click. (of course, if you want to see the 3D effect, you'll need to get the glasses...)


How does it work? Using proprietary software and proven stereoscopic 3D technologies, TDV enhances ordinary 3D by adding depth information to the perspective view, resulting in a completely immersive experience. The result is a on-screen image with 3D perspective that appears to be suspended in midair. According to TVD, the resultant image is realistic enough to inspire viewers to attempt to 'touch' the image.

What do you get with TDV3D? The system consists of everything you need to convert 2D into 3D, including wire and wireless glasses, receiver, connecting cords and infrared transmitter, install system software, and a 2D-3D Adobe plug-in (for still graphics). In order to access the Stereovision 3D experience on the TDV Web portal, each customer must purchase the TDV Viewing System at www.tdv3d.com, which is easy to install and retails for 99 dollars (USD).

Stay tuned for an upcoming review of the TVD3D system. I'm looking forward to putting it through its paces...
