As you know - the system they are using currently in DC - the single projector 3D (Dolby + RealD) has never been available to the public.
There are no standards yet for home video. In the past - everyone "did their own thing" using methods that weren't much better than "garage tech."
Now - these standards are being worked on. SMPTE is working on the encode/decode standards while the DVD Forum and the BDA are working on delivery standards. The display standards have not been set either. We think it will require 120HZ - but that is not a standard.
So we wait as consumers and it will take years. It is not "right around the corner" (1 year). More like 2 or 3 years+.
Because when it comes to 3D Cinema - only until recently was this successful in the form of IMAX 3D running twin projectors.
And the 3D you see in an IMAX theater, can now be seen in a Digital Cinema theater, all of which beats the crap out of anything available today or previously to the consumer. . . and they intend to duplicate this experience in the home.
