As most of today’s games are supposed to be 3D, it’s pretty funny to think that our real perception of them is two dimensional; That is, at least, if you don’t have one of those expensive ($1500+) 3D monitors that will supposedly be the future of viewing graphics on a PC. With all this in mind, when the eDimensional package successfully landed here (just two days after shipping), I was eagerly awaiting to see if they really could offer another dimension to gaming.

How It Works:
I don’t know the technical lingo to explain how 3D works, but I’ll sum it up as best I can. Basically, people have two eyes and your eyes see things from a perspective when looking at objects depending on their locations, which is called binocular disparity. One eye sees one side of an object, and the other eye sees the other side. Your brain uses both views to create one three dimensional image. So this means the depth you actually see is just a perception of what the brain thinks it is; it may not actually be the true look of an image. Pretty weird stuff, eh?
Anyhow, the E-D system shows you a two eye view from your computer monitor. The depth-of-field is simulated using shutter-glasses with lenses that can alternate between clean and opaque (blocks light). While using the glasses, a left eye image is first displayed on a computer monitor, and the shutter-glasses left lens is clear, while the right lens is dark. The image on the monitor is then switched to the right-eye view, and the lens of the shutter-glasses is reversed. This switching occurs many times per second, fast enough for your eyes not to notice it. Your brain fuses the separate images together to create 3D. Yes, it’s just your brains perception of what the image should look like. Pretty neat how we can trick the brain, don’t you think?
