CES 2010: 3D Viewing at Home

The way of making films have truly evolved. Gone were the days when watching black and white clips is a luxury to most affluent people. Nowadays, black and white films won't even make it to the big screen. As technology continues to evolve, so does our viewing experience. And because of this change, images truly do come to life. That is what 3D vieiwing is all about. It gives you a feeling that you are actually in the situation, making images very vivid and realistic. That used to be seen in theaters alone. Used to. Because now, even your brand new TV could be 3D capable, just like the Sony XBR-LX900.

Unlike any ordinary HDTV, the Sony XBR-LX900 gives you full 3D viewing pleasure. When you purchase one, it actually includes one pair of 3D glasses. Of course, if you would be watching Avatar with the whole family, you better get one for each member.

It's kind of cool, too, that Sony included a built-in WiFi to the TV, allowing you access to your home network. Here, you could stream videos, listen to music, browse through photos and a lot of other stuff.

Another feature it has, although not really that useful, is face detection. Sure, it does not have built in camera that snaps a photo everytime it sees your face. What it does it it detects whether or not you are actually in front of the TV set so it could adjust its brightness. When it notices that you stepped out of the room or too far away from the TV, it dims its screen to save more energy. Now, don't you think gadgets are getting smarter and smarter than humans? Or better yet, another reason for a human to get even lazier. Instead of turning off the TV to save on electricity, let it do that by itself.
