Pompeii was largely destroyed by the volcanic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. Technological advances have enabled researchers to virtually reconstruct the area’s ruins including the 3D representation of a luxurious estate owned by a banker from that era.
The first 3-D photo was created by Sir Charles Wheatstone all the way back in the 1830’s. The illusion was created by stereopsis, a technique where each eye is presented with a slightly different version of the same photo.
2014 brought more attention to 4K and curved displays than on 3D and active glasses. Toshiba launched a 4K laptop in April, LG sells a 4K curved TV, and recently Samsung introduced a 4K curved PC monitor.
Samsung has made a rather interesting announcement of a device called “Project Beyond”, which happens to be a unique 360-degree camera that captures the world around in 3D and then allows content to be created for its forthcoming Gear VR virtual reality handset.
Let us guess one thing here – you are now sitting comfortably in your chair and you are browsing our web site while using your desktop computer or maybe a notebook. These two devices have become ubiquitous – just take a look around and you are likely to see more of them in your immediate vicinity.
