World Cup 2010 final game is coming to movie theaters in 3D
Posted on June 25, 2010 | No Comments
So maybe you're like our friend Jimmy and want to check out some World Cup action in 3D, but don't know where to go to see it. Luckily Cinedigm is adding to its list of sports broadcasts by bringing the World Cup final to a few moviehouses in 3D. Check out the official site for the current list of locations, although there are far fewer than we've seen available for events like the NCAA Final Four and BCS National Championship game. Maybe if the US team moves on we'll see that number improve but if all you want to do is slip on some 3D specs and catch some football international-style, we'd get a ticket now.World Cup 2010 final game is coming to movie theaters in 3D originally appeared on Engadget HD on Fri, 25 Jun 2010 14:32:00 EST.

US consumers purchase $55 million worth of 3D TVs and Blu-ray players, despite the glasses
Posted on June 25, 2010 | No CommentsIt's early days yet, but NPD claims that revenue from US sales of 3D TVs and standalone 3D-capable Blu-ray players has exceeded $55 million in the first three months of availability. Mind you, this steady growth comes despite the absence of some major players. While that number might sound big, it's tiny in comparison to the total number of TVs sold each month in the US and, according to our friend Ross Rubin, executive director of industry analysis at NPD, sales are expected to remain small throughout 2010. Regarding those much maligned 3D glasses, only 10% of those surveyed by NPD cited "looking silly" as a main concern. Instead, the biggest concern was not having enough glasses on hand for everyone looking at the set. A concern driven by cost, undoubtedly, and a dearth of survey participants from New York's trendy Lower East Side.

Comcast, Time Warner, Bright House pick up Coke Zero 400 3D broadcast
Posted on June 25, 2010 | No CommentsLooks like Turner Sports has no problem sharing its first NASCAR 3D broadcast, and as a result Comcast, Bright House Networks and Time Warner are all on board for the July 3 Coke Zero 400 race. Already announced for DirecTV and internet streaming, the night race will have two feeds, one of trackside cameras and one on the pits and feature the network's "Wide Open" format, promising more unobstructed race action free of national commercial breaks. Of course, we'd like to know what the next big 3D event is more than just a couple of weeks ahead of time, but if you're one of the few with the necessary hardware, we're sure any content is welcome no matter how it arrives.

Are consumers really ready to pay for 3D at home? Survey says ‘no’
Posted on June 24, 2010 | 1 CommentOh, sure -- the results found here aren't exactly what one would call "scientific," but coupled with our own reaction gathering, we're confident that the conclusions drawn are far from inaccurate. The gang over at Technologizer gathered a group with varied demographics in New York in order to sit a spell and give their opinions on 3D content; everything from 3D "American Idol" to World Cup matches were shown, and even a few kiddo programs were ran for the youngsters. All told, most everyone was at least impressed with the 3D sports coverage, and the majority agreed that not everything benefited from being in 3D. But were they so impressed that they'd go shell out for a new TV, 3D equipment and a 3D pay-TV package? Hardly. In fact, it was tough to find a single viewer who was eager and willing to drop a wad of cash to get three-dee into their abode. Go on and give that source link a visit if you don't believe us -- no matter how you slice it, we'd say that in-home 3D has a far harder road to mainstream than HD ever did.

Sony gears up for Blu-ray 3D mastering and production in Japan
Posted on June 23, 2010 | No CommentsGood news if you find yourself in Tokyo and just have to have a Blu-ray 3D disc made, as Sony DADC Japan and Sony PCL are equipped to produce them. They're open for business July 1, following the Panasonic facilities opened last month, check out an authoring suite at Sony PCL pictured above. So far the facilities have focused on Blu-ray 2D, DVD and UMD production, but since 3DTV has been on the air in Japan for quite some time, we're expecting there to be a quite a backlog of content to bring home on disc.
