eDimensional Takes Gaming To the Next Level with Introduction of Wireless 3

[Apophis]

West Palm Beach, FL – November 11th, 2004

eDimensional, the leading manufacturer and worldwide distributor of cutting edge gaming and virtual reality accessories, announces the release of its latest innovation, the E-D Wireless Glasses. The E-D Wireless Glasses instantly convert your existing PC video game titles into a mind-blowing 3D experience, giving you the most realistic gaming environment ever created – literally putting you inside the game. The E-D technology can also be used to watch DVDs and view digital photos in real 3D on any PC (CRT or LCD monitor).

Retailing for under $100, the E-D Wireless package comes complete with one pair of glasses, one video synchronization module, one infra-red transmitter, and the patented eDimensional software. The comfortable, lightweight glasses come with standard inexpensive lithium cell batteries – the kind that can be found at any electronics store - and provide up to 100 hours of usage (extra batteries available for only one dollar each).

"We have seen the gaming market explode over the past few years," explains Michael Epstein, President of eDimensional. "As gamers ourselves, we always try to identify what the real needs of the gaming community are and then develop a product accordingly. We found that gamers want a more complete experience with more interactivity, more immersion, more realistic graphics, and more exciting effects. The E-D Wireless technology gives them the mind-blowing 3D experience that they desire."

Installation of the E-D Wireless Glasses is a snap with no USB or serial ports required. Simply install the patented software, plug in the adapter to any standard PC, and then sit back and enjoy the best gaming experience ever. The E-D system uses an infrared transmitter for wire-free operation of the glasses. A dual-emitter transmitter is utilized to give the widest viewing angle and range possible and to beam a signal to perfectly synchronize the refresh rate of the monitor with the glasses. This transmission also allows for additional users who have their own pair of E-D Wireless Glasses.

For viewing of DVDs and digital photos, eDimensional offers their 3D Plus software ($39.95) and 3D Combine software ($19.95) that converts your favorite movie titles and memories to true 3D.

A Wired version of the E-D Glasses is available for under $70.

I have not used them. I know we have a couple people here who use the TrackIR system, but I'm not aware of anyone that is using the glasses. I do hope to get a set to test out and review, but we'll have to see how that goes.

Who has TrackIR? What do you think of it?

I got trackIR recently and am still trying to get used to it. I'm pretty clumsy still but is amazing.

Ghostrecon.net had a very good review of them here. I have had the wireless 3d glasses from e-Dimensional for awhile now. I like them a lot, especially for flight sims. The 3d effects are real, no joke, very well done. You do need to tweak your video settings a bit to get everything working right, but it's simple once you've gone through it. My only complaint is that 2d objects like labels and reticules come across as if you are cross eyed (double image). There may be a way to overcome this that I haven't figured out yet. I like them a lot though.

edit:
that GR.net review is over a year old so I'm sure some things have been changed, improved?
