Mitsubishi 3DC-1000 3D Adapter Available

New 3D Adapter Will Enable Cross-Platform Compatibility for 3D Content

Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America, Inc. (MDEA) will showcase the flexibility and versatility of its 3D-ready TV products by displaying 3D content delivered by various video sources, including Blu-Ray players at CES 2010 in the "Experience 3D Tech Zone". MDEA has also announced a new 3D adapter which will provide Mitsubishi 3D-ready Home Theater TV owners with an easy and affordable solution to display 3D from a 3D Blu-Ray player. The Mitsubishi 3DC-1000 3D adapter will be available in late spring of 2010. MDEA will be located in CES booth #14548, Central Hall.

"As a pioneer in the 3D television market, Mitsubishi is bridging the gap for consumers to experience this break-through technology," said Frank DeMartin, vice president of marketing, Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America. "3D is definitely a large screen experience, and Mitsubishi offers the most models and largest screen sizes of 3D-ready TVs available today, including one of the world's largest mass produced 3D-ready TV at 82 inches."

At CES, MDEA will be rolling in its massive and impressive 53-foot Mobile Marketing Showroom (MMS) into the "Experience 3D Tech Zone". The MMS will provide a 1000-square-foot showroom showcasing a wide variety of new 3D content displayed on both LaserVue^TM and Home Theater TVs.

3D entertainment will be demonstrated on a laser-powered television, using a 65" LaserVue TV and MDEA's Home Theater TV product line will be displaying cross-platform content on its 60", 73" and 82" televisions.

MDEA began distribution of 3D-ready TVs in 2007. To help consumers experience and learn more about 3D technology, MDEA has displayed highly interactive retail demonstration kiosks in more than 150 home theater dealers nationwide, enabling consumers to experience 3D as it would perform in a typical home setting. The in-store 3D display is equipped with a Mitsubishi Home Theater TV and media server, as well as stereoscopic glasses and an IR-emitter. Each demo showcases all the products needed to watch 3D movies or play 3D games at home.

"Consumer demand for 3D-capable TVs will continue to rise in 2010 and beyond, and the industry will see Mitsubishi continue to provide solutions for mass consumer adoption," said David Naranjo, director of product development, Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America. "We expect 2010 to be the year that 3D finally achieves mass consumer adoption, and are working to continue to pioneer innovation to make it easier than ever for consumers to experience this next big step in home entertainment."

How do you make 3D READY tv work?

# 3D Ready — Patrick 2010-07-27 09:06

3D Ready hdtv were designed to play back 3d content from a pc. Before the full bluray-3d era this meant buying software like Tridef's 3D-Experience ($199 starter pack -software, emitter, 2 pair of shutter glasses)then installing the software, hooking up the emitter, and playing back a field-sequential dvds. Now, in the full bluray-3d era, still using your pc, you'll need Cyberlink's "PowerDVD-10 Ultra 3D" software ($99)which plays back full bluray-3d discs in the necessary checkerboard format for 3D Ready hdtvs, you'll also need an emitter and shutter glasses for DLP-3D systems (available at edimensional.com) if you do not already have the Tridef emitter and glasses. I own a Samsung plasma 3D Ready hdtv and play back full bluray-3d disc using Cyberlink's software.

I am curious to see what Mitsubishi calls affordable as one high end Mitsubishi dealer on the west side of Los Angeles, about three months ago, speculated that it would cost consumers $1K with a couple of pair of glasses in addition to the TV set. And then there are the glasses themselves. Are these going to be lightweight and large enough to accomodate the larger format these projectors allow for? And with the Laservue, doesnt that allow for potential polarized 3D?

I guess you can watch it right now if you want to spend 1K or more for a PC but why do that is this Emitter and glasses is all you need. RP

# Read the fine print before buying — ghost 2010-05-31 18:08

All of those complaining that Mitsubishi needs to pay for YOUR TV to be 3D complete need to stop whining as it makes you sound like a bunch of young inept high school students.

The marketing and box information clearly states "READY!" not "This TV is a 3D TV." You have fine print in any high end dollar investment so quit your gripping. You should read it next time or ask the sales agent. And $399 is not bad considering what price point they *could* have used. If you don't want glasses then purchase the $99 emitter. So no its not super expensive. If you have kids then sure it might be out of your budget, but what you doing buying a TV out of your budget in the first place? Next thing everyone knows you'll be asking for a bailout on your mortgage because you *have* to have cable/sat TV. Don't balk about prices you can't afford, say oh well and move on with your life or save up like people did 30-50 years ago BEFORE credit cards.

OK, however, many stores (like Paul's TV for example) have had interface failures with Mitsubishi 3D "ready" models although it could be a fluke....most sales people in this business may not really have a clue about 3D. And, actually, who wants all that outboard eq anyway unless one is really a true gadget freak. Personally, really want to see what Sharpe's new 3D Quattron's can do before I make any decision (it sounds fully loaded and then some) Then there is a matter of compatability of all of the systems out there. What is the true situation with this, as some mfrs (like Vizio) may favor other than the set Blue Ray standard (is there a set standard for Blue Ray?)

If a $2500 tv says it is 3D ready and actually has a function in the menu to set it on or off, then that basically tells me that 3d programming should be viewed in that form when the 3D function is turned on. Has nothing to do with price moron. What the hell does that have to do with budget, kids, etc...................Its a legitimate complaint!!!! There was no need for your # ass comments. Q.

The way I took it when I bought my TV was this: I have the *possibility* of playing back 3D content, but since that content doesn't exist yet I could be purchasing vaporware. Does this open Mitsu for some marketing lawsuits? I don't know. (IANAL)

I do agree with the salesman and compatibility concerns. I never expect any sales person to know the product more than I and if they do I'm pleasantly surprised. I always do lots of research online before any large purchase. The internet is so ubiquitous its stupid not to at this juncture.

With the current technology there are only 2 major pieces you need, aside from the player and TV, those being the emitter and sync for the glasses. The glasses in this package are what jack the price up (glasses go usually for $150 a pop). This still leaves the emitter at $99. But the largest concern I have are compatibility with blu-ray players.

# Who will make the universal adaptor first? — jerry 2010-06-08 08:24

Whoever makes a 3D adaptor that is economical will make a fortune. Any TV, with a high refresh rate, can be made 3D. TV manufacturers will attempt to sell their TVs with the adaptors (with some good reasons, ei refresh/scan rate). When a company offers a 3D adaptor for about $100, with 2 glasses, everyone will want to convert. For older lower refresh rates (60 Hz versus 240 Hz rates of newer sets), the #D would still be good. All that would be needed is an video sync circuit in line with the HDMI or composite video to diplay the right/left images alternately in sync with the glasses and your there!! A simple science project for most average electrical engineers.

# RE: Who will make the universal adaptor first? — Jim Krisvoy 2010-06-10 15:58

It should be very possible and would really open up the 3D world and there are already lower cost field sequential glasses out there that actually can refresh faster than 60hz, however, they are heavier, have smaller field of view, etc. Ideally, all of this should be newer technology for every reason one can think of.

Guysplease be ware what you are buying. The Mits 3DC-1000 only has one input (So your bluray could be it or your TV sattalite, or cable company) but the adpater only has ONE. So you will need to buy an additional 1-4 switcher it you want to watch 3D sports or movies from your other source you will have to unhook every hting and move it over to the other source.

If you have a Samsung 3D TV, all you have to do is hit the ?3D? button on the remote, put on your Samsung 3D Active Glasses, and enjoy 3D thrills from a 2D source" (Samsung.com, 2010)
