Broadening the three-dimensional space further, Nvidia has unveiled its new 3D Vision 2 glasses and 3D LightBoost based monitors. These new 3D Vision devices tout to offer engaging and realistic experience for movies, photos and games.
For sleek, redesigned glasses, the Nvidia 3D Vision 2 has been employed. On the other hand, for displays, the company has built the Nvidia 3D LightBoost technology. Seemingly, these products could woo gamers wanting to get their hands on games like Batman: Arkham City, LA Noire and others this season.
“Nvidia 3D LightBoost technology makes 3D games, movies and photos more stunning and life-like than ever before,†said David Wung, senior director of product management of Open Platform Business (OPBG) Group for Asus Computer International. “With 3D LightBoost and our new full-HD monitors, colors are richer, textures and subtle image details virtually jump off the screen, and the overall quality of the experience is something to behold. We are thrilled to be the first desktop display manufacturer to bring this new level of 3D visual quality to our customers with the Asus VG278H.â€
Nvidia has crafted the 3D Vision 2 glasses keeping gaming and 3D freaks in mind. It intends to deliver gaming with 20 percent larger lenses for wider viewing. These glasses are made of soft material and rope in advanced active-shutter and IR wireless technologies. Moreover, they are completely backwards-compatible with existing Nvidia 3D Vision Ready content and support numerous devices.
The Nvidia 3D LightBoost display technology aims at two times brighter 3D images compared to the present ones alongside enhanced color quality. It also claims to reduce 3D ghosting. The ASUS VG278H is the first Nvidia 3D LightBoost-certified deaktop that bundles up the Nvidia 3D Vision 2 glasses. With the spec sheet revealing a 27-inch LED full HD (1920 x 1080) monitor, 3D HDMI 1.4 input, and Dual-link DVI input for full HD 1080p 3D gaming, it is priced at $699 (approx Rs. 34,216).
Acer and BenQ displays compatible with Nvidia 3D LightBoost will begin shipping in the coming months. While LightBoost compatible notebooks from Toshiba and others are also expected to start shipping in the coming months
