3D is a useless gimmick and no one can convince me otherwise.

I rarely leave NYC so coverage hasn't been an issue for me with T-Mobile but it would be nice for hikers and global travelers to have access to that. Maybe some kind of new application would benefit from investment in new tech as well.

“actually laid eyes on”? I “see” what you did there.

Oh, this must be the improved version of a hydrogen powered flying race car that no one has ever heard of!

If they don’t play techno music while racing they better at least have power weapons!

That's what they said about VR headsets. "It'll never work, look at the VirtualBoy, silly gimmick etc etc." But it turns out that previous products failed not because the concept is useless or silly, it's because technology wasn't advanced enough to create an enjoyable experience. And now VR headsets are a viable and growing market, posted to get better as display and processing tech advances.
Who says the same can't happen of 3D displays?

AND you have to buy the coaster/car charger separately.

I design a lot of 3D parts for 3D printing. Would be handy to have this at times so I can see depth of extrusions and such without constantly rotating the part. Wouldn’t think it would be necessary often, but might be handy to have when you do need it.

And if eye tracking is a part then likely it will only work for one viewer.

I just got one as a gift. It’s not something I outright wanted but it has come in handy when I make coffee and then have to run after a toddler or get sucked into a work meeting and my coffee goes cold. It’s nice to have it heat back to a hot temp. But my yeti and Starbucks travel mug still get the job done too.

Wasn't this mentioned to be Digital River and not AMD themselves? Digital River is well known for being incredibly difficult to work with.

Cool, thanks for making me waste a couple minutes because you're lazy. So yeah, does that sound like a 3DS? High resolution, low response time, eye tracking? Do you even have any concept of what a 3DS looks like?
Similar technology does not mean the same specs. But cool deal on finding the first sentence that matches your negative vibe and stopping there. Real efficient at being what you are.

I'd rather buy that self cleaning bottle. I think it was called the Larq.

“Similar technology has been used in a small number of laptops and displays before” tell me where it says it’s not like anything we’ve seen before. Also, it looks like it’s lacking a market. I don’t think any of my coworkers would sign up for this, I could ask them.

Hate those “3D glasses”, there’s a reason people pay a lot of money for laser surgery or hassle of contact lenses. Also do not believe they provide better quality

Did you read the article? Because you'd probably know comparing it to a 3DS is pretty silly if you did.

There is a company called zSpace that has done this for about 10 years but with passive 3D glasses with reflectors to track your eyes. This is really affecting and rich tech.
It is meaningful because you reduce nausea to near zero because your peripheral vision is still capturing the "real world" surrounding you.
Propers to zSpace for innovating this.

Takes twice as long to get where you're going, at four times the price. You'll spend more time babysitting the thing to make sure it goes where you want, than you do spending time with your actual child.

My 40 inch once costed that amount. It’s not bad.
