Glasses Free 3D For iPhone And iPad

Thursday, March 31st, 2011

s1090001 Big Head Games is excited to announce a break through technology, developed in tandem with Korean tech firm Floorpali, comprising of a thin clear film and the BHG SDK all games can be made ‘glasses free’ 3D.

The effect is simply stunning, visually similar to 3DS but on the bigger and higher res screen of iPhone and iPad making this truly the next gen of handheld gaming.

It’s impossible to show the effect in a photo but here we see how simple the approach is, a wafer thin sheet of ‘plastic’ is laid on the screen and immediately images leap out at you.

Big Head’s Business Director Dave Vout explains “this is truly amazing, it blows away the Nintendo 3DS for size and resolution, it’s just a huge leap forward, we’ve worked very hard with Floorpali to develop something that is cheap but durable enough, this is going to change gaming on the iPad.”
