Title: 3d Glasses
Post by: OldiesButGoodies on July 14, 2014, 11:04:01 PM

I have never tried this tech,  and now I notice that Verizon FIOS has some programming in 3D available on demand (HBO, etc.).  I am tempted to get an emitter and a pair of glasses to test them on the Mistu DLP projector.  Anyone have experience with this?  Is it worth doing?

Thanks,

I didn't much care for 3D in the theater and don't plan to invest in it at home.

I have a Samsung 3d smart tv.  They have the active glasses.  It is really cool to watch them in 3d, however I found there was not much of a selection of 3d blue ray movies to choose from.  I watched the Fright Night remake, and after a scene with a fire the embers did look very lifelike coming out of the screen at me.  At the price they are now it wouldn't be a bad investment if there were more movies to watch.

I will search for a used pair to try.   God knows I waste money on beer,  why not on a pair of glasses to test the current state of 3D crappiness.
