Samsung's new monitor offers immersive 3D gaming without any glasses
Samsung has unveiled its latest addition to the Odyssey gaming monitor series, the Odyssey 3D. The new model, set for a global launch later this year, is equipped with eye-tracking technology that can convert 2D visuals into a glasses-free 3D experience. This innovative feature allows users to effortlessly transition between 2D and 3D modes based on their preference.
Odyssey 3D: Samsung's first 3D gaming monitor
The Odyssey 3D marks Samsung's entry into the world of 3D gaming monitors, following a concept display showcased at CES earlier this year. The new monitor will be available in two sizes, 27-inch and 37-inch, both featuring a 4K QLED panel with a refresh rate of up to 165Hz. Additionally, it boasts a swift response time of just one millisecond and compatibility with AMD FreeSync technology for enhanced gaming experience.
Advanced features and connectivity options
The Odyssey 3D monitor is equipped with a single DisplayPort 1.4 and two HDMI 2.1 ports for connectivity. It also comes with an adjustable stand that can be tilted and height-adjusted to optimize the viewing experience of 3D content. This feature ensures users can position the monitor in a way that best suits their gaming needs, enhancing their overall experience.
How does the glasses-free 3D technology work?
The glasses-free 3D effect on the Odyssey 3D monitor is achieved by integrating a lenticular lens with an eye-tracking camera and view mapping. This combination continuously adjusts for depth perception, creating a unique gaming experience. However, it's worth noting that this Stereoscopic 3D can only be viewed by one person at a time due to its design.
