NFL: Live and 3D

Yesterday's NFL game between the Oakland Raiders and the San Diego Chargers was played in 3D in private theaters to audiences in Los Angeles, New York and Boston by the Burbank, Calif., firm 3ality Digital. 3ality chairman David Modell said it was more of a test run to show to the NFL that 3D technology is already here. Howard Kat, who is the NFL senior vice president for media operations, says the whole thing was just a "proof of concept." The amazing thing about all this is that it was shown live AND 3D, something not normally heard of. Now the bad part is the 3D glasses. By now, one would think that there would have been some improvements to 3D viewing, and its true, there probably are, but the glasses still remain the same, unchanged for decades.
