Car Screens to Come in 3D

Not exactly something we weren't expecting, but this time somebody with inside knowledge in the matter can confirm what we were expecting ever since Avatar gave us all a notion of what 3D should all be about: 3D in-car screens will become a reality.

Judging by the huge hurdles in development that in turn transform into huge prices for these devices, it's unlikely we'll see all the cars on the road adopt the technology anytime soon, but the important thing is that somebody has finally decided to pursue this goal.

The name of the company which has committed to make 3D a part of our driving routine is MasterImage 3D, a type of guru when it comes to this type of displays. Their goal is to bring to life the technology that will allow the passengers of the car to watch the 3D movie of their choosing right into the vehicle.

According to nitrobahn.com, MasterImage will use for the task at hand a type of technology it was developing initially for use in smartphones. Linked with an Internet connection, the new gadget will allow drivers and passengers to download movie or play online games in 3D, just as if they were sitting at home. Needless to say, the navigation system would also use the same technology to render the terrain ahead “as is.”

As said, all of the above is, for now, wishful thinking. Even if MasterImage completes the work this year, at first the technology would be extremely expensive and will take a considerable amount of time to adopt on a large scale.
