3D Advances
3D television is the next big thing in visual entertainment, allowing the viewer to feel completely immersed in the visual picture and part of the action. The popularity of 3D technology has risen greatly in recent years, with an explosion in 3D cinema catching the imagination of cinema goers everywhere.
With 2010 being labelled as the “3D Summer”, experts predict the gradual spread of 3D technology into our living rooms, with over 40% of the population excited about the prospect of watching 3D programming from the comfort of their armchair.
Major players in the electronics industry are ploughing hundreds of thousands of pounds into the development and promotion of their own 3D technology, all vying to be the brand of choice. This race is hotting up in the run up to the 2010 World Cup, where games will be filmed in 3D for the first time and football enthusiasts look to become even more involved in the on-field action than ever before.
Sky’s 3D channel was launched earlier this year and Sky will soon be offering Sky 3D for communal rooms offshore, adding value to the current Sky subscriptions offshore, increasing the entertainment options available and improving crew welfare. Sky has already started to show live sports exclusively, including Barclays Premier League football, the Coca-Cola Championship play-off final and rugby from the Guinness Premiership and England versus Barbarians. Later in the year you'll also be able to watch some great sports, movies and entertainment in amazing 3D from the comfort of your living room.
AVC can both supply and install 3D technology, both on and offshore, increasing the accessibility of this innovation and bringing 3D to you whatever your geography.
