LAS VEGAS, Nev. – CONSUMER ELECTRONICS SHOW – January 6, 2012 – MasterImage 3D, one of the fastest growing 3D solutions providers in the world, today announced it has launched glasses-free HD 720 resolution 3D display for a 4.3” smartphone and WUXGA (1920*1200) resolution 3D display for a 10.1” tablet. A demonstration of the technology, showcasing a first-look at premium 3D content streamed through MasterImage 3D Media’s embedded portal and media player, will be shown at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas next week in the MasterImage 3D booth (South Hall, lower level, #21727).
All demonstrations feature MasterImage 3D’s Cell-Matrix Parallax Barrier with smart multicore OMAP4430 and OMAP4460 mobile processors from Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI), Chimei Innolux (CMI) TFT panels and the latest Google Android operating system.
Cell-Matrix Parallax Barrier Technology is MasterImage 3D’s proprietary solution that is invented, patented and mass-produced as the leading technology in glasses-free 3D display. The technology provides brighter images, lessened crosstalk, reduced moiré effects (or rippled appearance) and the widest possible viewing angle.
Units being shown at CES by MasterImage 3D will run content from MasterImage 3D’s content portal and 3D Media Player, an embedded digital 3D mobile storefront providing MasterImage 3D display partners with streaming premium 3D content and secure e-commerce fulfillment.
