Sigma Designs Licenses Stereoscopic RealD Format
Global 3D technology company, RealD, and Sigma Designs, a provider of system-on-chip (SoC) solutions, jointly announced delivery of support for the stereoscopic RealD format incorporated in Sigma Designs’ media processors.
The integration enables manufacturers of set-top boxes, TVs and other consumer electronics to take advantage of the RealD format for the delivery and display of high definition 3D content with no additional hardware required. The integrated design is available from Sigma Designs today.
The RealD format is an enhanced version of the company’s patented side-by-side 3D delivery method that includes a unique set of technologies to identify, manage and deliver stereoscopic content.
The RealD format multiplexes a left-eye and right-eye 3D image into a single channel and is capable of delivering high definition 3D content to any 3D-enabled display type using today’s HD infrastructure across cable, satellite, packaged media and the Internet. (For more, click here).
