Toshiba to show off 3D you can take with you

Toshiba Matsushita Display Technology Co., Ltd. will be previewing 3D technology on handheld 3-inch and 9-inch LCD displays that don't require special glasses to work.

The technology works by integrating a 3D film with the backlight modules of small- and medium-sized LCD displays that use Optically Compensated Bend (OCB) mode to deliver clear, true autostereoscopic viewing. Left and right eye images are focused sequentially into the viewer's eyes, allowing for full resolution of the display panel, the company said.

The company said it expects to incorporate the technology into products within the next year. It didn't say how much it expected them to cost.

Oh, goody. Something that will let my daughter watch the Hannah Montana movie wherever she goes.
