So do we really need glasses for this whole 3d thing?

Is there any way that I could like, twist my head or scrunch up my eyes in a weird way and make the same effect?

Perhaps make a circle and look through my fingers? I tried to find some red-and-blue stained glass windows to look through but there weren't any that I could legally shatter and take.

They're actually working on 3D televisions that don't require glasses. The TV screens have vertical ridges that jut in and out.

If the image is shown on a single two-dimensional surface, then yes, glasses are required.

Seriously, someone needs to like explain, someone needs to take a step back and say, "okay, here's the deal with 3d"

Because I'm honestly just clueless as to what's going on. Are we moving closer to the Jetsons and Futurama type future?

Nintendo 3DS?

Nintendo has it covered.

Not since stereoscopy was first discovered over 150 years ago. Its merely a matter of crossing your eyes to make matching images pop out at you (one for each eye). The only reason they are needed for televisions and movie screens is because you are sitting so far back from the display point, that crossing your eyes won't work.

That's what they said about home computers, bro.GHlegend77

Who exactly finds it cool or "neat"? 12 year olds? Kids going to Disney land? I'll never understand the public. People must be downright sickly bored of their pathetic lives. eccentric_view

whaaa? So much rage over 3D. It's just a feature that may or may not be here for the long run. You make it sound like it some kind of gang.
