A consumer autostereo OLED monitor is on display in the future technologies section of the Sony booth. The company plans to unveil two professional OLED monitors next month. These professional monitors will be 2D only. But Sony’s roadmap is to develop a professional OLED line that that is upgradable to 3D.

The Sharp booth contains a very interesting display; the Information Intelligent Imaging Wall (i3 Wall). Sharp has lined three walls, the floor, and the ceiling with sixty 60-inch LCD displays calibrating a series of videos that project an immersive environment that can be a spectacular, vertigo-inducing experience.

Although Toshiba is majoring on 3D (in passive, polarized and autostereoscopic form) it is also including WiFi capability and its Net TV platform with most new sets. For 3D TV the company is debuting the UL610 Cinema series, available in 46-, 55- and 65-inch models. These edge-lit LEDs all run on a 480Hz refresh rate and use a version of local dimming Toshiba calls Fine Edge that features more zones of dimming than other edge-lit models.

Toshiba is demoing a glasses-free 3D laptop that displays in 1080p and converts 2D to 3D on the fly. The unit features facial tracking software that operates through the screen-mounted camera to ensure that if a user shifts position the 3D sweet spot follows. It is expected to be available in the US within a year.

Long Term Evolution, or LTE, is an important emerging high speed distribution technology being demonstrated toward the back of the LG booth. They have both 2D and 3D displays playing HD and 3D video streams being received from a local broadcast station. The signal is capable of achieving 100 Mbps downstream.

LG’s 84-inch Ultra Definition 3DTV is a proof-of-concept 4K 3D display capable of displaying a full HD resolution 3D image. It demonstrates that a polarized display is capable of displaying the full 3D images delivered by 3D Blu-ray discs, undermining one of the unique marketing features of active shutter glasses 3D displays.

Sony’s plans to launch Google TV-powered products into Europe have been stalled indefinitely following the Google TV’s “no show” at CES. Sony was the first major manufacturer to announce Google TV products last winter. Sony Google TV-powered products are available in the US including Bravia HDTVs and a Blu-ray player.

Sony is showcasing the future of 3D in a series of technology prototypes on the show floor. These include what it claims to be the world’s first double full 1920×1080 HD camcorder, three autostereoscopic screens and a headmounted display featuring two 3-inch OLEDs.

LG Electronics debuted its first 4G phone, the Revolution, which will be available later this year through Verizon. It powers up to eight WiFi devices. The Android 2.2 device has a 4.3-inch touch screen and a 5 megapixel camera capable of 720p capture. LG also got a booth buzz going with proof-of-concept technology for a mobile lenticular display, but had no product release scheduled.

JVC is demoing what it claims to be the first home theater projectors to gain THX 3D Display Certification. The 2D and 3D supported Procision Series DLA-X9 and DLA-X7 may also have applications in production and postproduction.
