LG recently introduced its PX950 series of 3DTVs, all of which are plasmas. These babies aren’t glasses-free and may not come with any glasses too. The thing that differs these from the rest is that they’re the first 3D plasmas to have this THX 3D certificatio...

While 3D TVs are not yet in much of a demand, they are quickly gaining popularity and media attention.

3D Photography has been around since the 1800’s, because it’s fairly simple to do, once you’ve mastered the basics. All 3D images are obtained through the same technique, by photographing the subject from two slightly different angles, in a way similar to that in which the human eyes perceive images.Back in the 1837, when the first stereoscopic image was developed, the same scene was recorded twice, and then the images we...
