    God damnit
    All this shitty 3D “technology” every media company is pushing nowadays is nothing different from the shit you saw 20 years ago. It’s hardly improved at all. THIS is true 3D, this is the kind of technology I had expected the 3DS to use. In all honesty, this is the kind of tech the 3DS SHOULD have used.

    What if you were to attach the wii remote to the tv, let someone hold the sensor bar and another person move the tv (and thus also the remove) to the left and right? Would that create the same effect for the person holding the sensor bar (and thus standing still)?

    I’ve seen this video a while ago, I’m thinking maybe the new wii could have this and also using along side with stereoscopic 3D this would be very interesting. Which would bring 3D TV more into the mainstream

    So wait a second….

    If, thanks to Johnny, we can now view 3 dimensions on a 2D surface…. will be ever be able to see 4 dimensions in a 3D space?

    I have seen this done with just regular head tracking and face detection CV algorithms that look for the angle of the face; yet, with IR detection, it obviously responds very quickly, and more accurately. I remember back in 2006 we would just mod a webcam, and put IR reflective tape on glasses to get the same effect; thus, there is really no need for a Wii remote.
