It seems that the TV providers have given up on waiting for a decent 3D system to arrive. Sky are rolling out some 3D channels and are starting with nine pubs this weekend showing a 3D football match. Expanding across pubs during April followed by homes later in the year.
I envisage that there will not be too much spending on infrastructure so it’s a good step to take for them. Even if it doesn’t work then they won’t have lost much. Personally, I hate these 3D systems but can’t see any alternative on the horizon.
It will be interesting to see what happens.
Does that involve everyone in the pub wearing special glasses? Or does it automatically go 3D? And why did it die out when they tried it decades ago with Cinerama?
James,
Yes it does and No it doesn’t. I have no idea I assume that, like me, they wanted to see in colour and the 3D wasn’t replacing the lack of colour.
How do they stop people knocking off the glasses then?
By knocking off I guess you mean steal. Nobody steals them as they are given away.
If you mean knocked off as in fall off then they do. Soccer is such and exciting game.
