Panasonic Outlines Plans For 3D Future

There's more talk of 3D today, following Sky's recent trials of 3D TV. Panasonic is looking to bring the technology to the optical disc, announcing a new 3D authoring laboratory at its Hollywood offices in California. This will boast a full home theatre system with a 3D-ready projector offering a 380" screen. A 3D plasma display, digital projector and MPEG4 decoder are in the works and it is in talks with major studios to make '3D Full HD' Blu-ray formats an established standard, which it plans to launch next year. Managing Director Eisuke Tsuyuzaki enthuses about the new setup and outlines its plans for the future: "Panasonic recognizes that for 3D FHD to succeed, just like Blu-ray, collaboration on research, development and production with studios and content providers is absolutely essential" he stated. "The creation of the new PHL Authoring Center will enable Hollywood to start trial production and ultimately create commercially available 3D FHD titles to realize a new window into reality, and elevate the level of High Definition entertainment that consumers can enjoy in their own homes." - Paul Lester [HDTVOrg] Panasonic 3D Blu-ray|
