Crowdfunding sought for 3D snow flake photography project
It’s not just for the pretty 3D pictures of falling snow flakes but also learn more about snow flakes in a way that leads to improved forecasting of snow conditions: Can we forecast the perfect ski day?☃ | Microryza.
This web page at the University of Utah illustrates the 3D camera used now.
Youtube 3D video player broken in Firefox and Internet Explorer
In the past week or so, Youtube has made changes that broke the playing of 3D videos in Internet Explorer and Firefox. Videos appear to display properly in Chrome and Opera browser.
In IE and Firefox, 3D videos display like this, rather than in the full size of the viewer:
Al Caudullo (3DGuy.tv) has found a work around: Go to each of your 3D videos on Youtube, and edit the “Tags” section and add:

I did this for all of my 3D videos and this did fix the problem.
Glasses Free 3D Tablet Available
Just $349: The No Glasses 3D Tablet – Hammacher Schlemmer.
Unfortunately, no manufacturer name is provided. But it runs Android 4.1. It does not include a 3D camera, and the built in 2D cameras are lame. And what does “1080p HD display with 1280 x 800 resolution” mean? Am guessing its just a 1280×800 resolution but it down scales 1080p content.
From the specs, this is not terribly impressive as a 3D tablet. I’d skip it for sure.
3D in the news – or not
Early last year I began tracking 3D news stories using news.google.com and a search for “3D”. Early on, a fair number of 3D stories were about 3D photography, 3D cameras and especially 3D content (movies, theaters, project systems) and 3D video games and displays.
Today, probably 95% of the stories are about 3D printing technology and 3D printing of products.
We know that consumption of 3D movies at theaters is up and the sale of 3D DVD discs and 3D HDTVs are also up strongly. But the popular meme is that 3D is dead which seems to shape news coverage.
3D is not dead, its just become ordinary and normal.
3D printing is the hot new thing (and it is).
