<br />for <a href="http://vimeo.com/28351280">3D smartphone goggles</a> (like the Hasbro my3D or the TOYin3D)
<br />for <a href="http://vimeo.com/28308186">tablet devices</a> (like the Apple iPad using an over/under viewer)
<br />for <a href="http://vimeo.com/28301331">laptops and any normal LCD</a> (also using the over/under method).
<br />
<br />Find out more about the german team of <a href="http://www.pinkau.de">Thomas Pinkau</a>.
<br />They also have a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wgnitIMaEo">Youtube3D</a> upload (unfortunately only a distorted, aka frame compatible version).
<br />
<br />I hope to also find trueColor3D versions on Youtube soon.

Therefor they not only magnify, but also use prisms to slant your view. If you flip the viewing direction, you can also narrow the view, wich worked fine for me with the iPodTouch Gen2.<br /><br />Sources in USA :<br /><a href="http://www.berezin.com/3d/cardview.htm">Berezin</a>, who also sells the KMQ viewer that converts iPad into mobile 3-D cinemas.<br /><a href="http://www.3dstereo.com/viewmaster/svn-dlor.html">3Dstereo</a><br /><br />Sources in Germany:<br /><a href="http://www.perspektrum.de/3d-betrachter-viewer/3d-prismenlinsenbetrachter.htm">Perspektrum</a><br /><a href="http://www.3d-foto-shop.de/pi10/pd111.htm">3d-foto-shop</a> With a better photo.<br />And you will also get some at my own <a href="http://www.pixelpartner.de/openKMQ">shop</a>. I plan to ship them in kits with DIY stands for stereo photobooks and maybe for the iOS as well.<br /><br />Please comment, tweet (@openMy3D) or email me for other sources to publish here.Thomas Kumlehn @pixelpartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454792881001409219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5052386450692389608.post-81410367874801947822011-04-25T02:36:00.000-07:002011-04-25T02:52:32.940-07:00Hollywood Pro reviews my3D and creates video optimzed for it<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3v06-V0mPso">Review on Youtube</a><br /><br />When I commented his review and pointed to this open source project, the author blocked me an regarded it as SPAM.<br />How can I avoid this?
