With this new agreement, the companies intend to work together on the development and licensing of radio frequency (RF) system 3D active glasses technology, including RF system protocols between consumer 3D active glasses and 3D displays such as televisions, personal computers, projectors and 3D theaters with XPAND active shutter glasses. The standardization will also include multiple types of infrared (IR) system protocols between 3D active glasses and 3D displays, ranging from the protocols jointly developed by Panasonic and XPAND 3D to the proprietary protocols of Samsung and Sony, respectively. The license of today's newly announced Full HD 3D Glasses Initiative is targeted to be released in September 2011, at which time the development of new standardization-applied active 3D glasses will begin. Universal glasses with the new IR/RF protocols will be made available in 2012, and are targeted to be backward compatible with 2011 3D active TVs. Glasses utilizing 3D active technology will benefit consumers in that they will enable Full HD 3D picture quality to be displayed to each eye, as well as a greater freedom of movement thanks to Bluetooth technology. The Bluetooth SIG supports the industry's move to standardize on Bluetooth technology in 3D glasses.

It incorporates a 3-inch VGA low-temperature polysilicone TFT LCD module that adds a white pixel to red-green-blue pixels. ![]() By improving the brightness of the entire screen, Sony has been able to develop a module that offers one mode, 'low-power', to reduce the power consumption of backlight by around 50%, as well as another, 'outdoor', mode that approximately doubles the brightness to improve outdoor visibility. Although adding the white pixel tends to result in deterioration of image quality, the analysis of the input picture data and Sony's signal processing algorithm enable images to be displayed without any deterioration. The display, shipping in early October 2011 at the sampling price of about $65, is mainly intended for digital cameras but can also be used in smartphones. Specifications:
