World’s first 46-inch stereoscopic 3D TV from Hyundai on sale in Japan
By Thomas Ricker | April 10, 2008
3D baby, that’s what we’ve wanted from home television for 50 years. Now it’s yours… if you live in Japan anyway. Introducing the world’s first 46-inch 3D stereoscopic television. Built by Hyundai, the 1,920 x 1,080 set is capable of grabbing BS11 3D broadcasts pumped by Nippon BS in Japan for the last few months. The ¥498,000 (about $4,857) LCD brings 2x HDMI and 3x composite inputs (to name a few) and apparently works fine for traditional 2D broadcasts. Unfortunately, you’ll have to wear what appear to be 3-foot wide, 3D glasses judging by the image provided above. Perhaps they’re meant as a radiation shield since the set is also the world’s first TV with built-in “nuclear reactor” according to the machine translated text. Be careful out there kids, it’s just television.
