*Apple 'developing 3D without glasses'Tuesday, December 28 2010Apple has revealed that it is working on new 3D technology that would function without the aid of glasses. According , Apple was recently granted a patent for a type of screen that creates not only 3D images without the need for glasses, but also holographic images. The company also intends to develop the technology so that it will be able to register the movements and positions of viewers so that the 3D image will remain sharp. The patent reads: "An exceptional aspect of the invention is that it can produce viewing experiences that are virtually indistinguishable from viewing a true hologram."Such a 'pseudo-holographic' image is a direct result of the ability to track and respond to observer movements." Apple has not revealed when this technology will become available, but the firm did state that it hopes to apply it to computers as well as television and movie screens.*
