The Future of Stereo 3D Part I: Nvidia GeForce 3D Vision

Whether it was the out-of-this-world 3D trailer for the upcoming Pixar movie Monsters versus Aliens at the Intel booth or the amazing 52" Samsung 3D monitor, stereoscopic 3D seemed to have captured the hearts and minds of many a jaded professional at an otherwise drab show. Unfortunately, neither the InTru3D-rendered Intel display nor the Samsung screen were interactive which brings us to where this article is heading; two of the stereo 3D technologies out there that are supposed to bring a new level of immersion to the PC games we play. One of these technologies is Nvidia's recently-released GeForce 3D Vision which garnered immense exposure at CES to the point where there were actually lineups forming of people who wanted to play their favourite games in stereo 3D.
