3-D TV through the Ages “There are, of course, several possible methods of accomplishing Stereoscopic Television” – Fundamentals of Television, 1930 1928 1953 Business Week headline: “3-D Invades TV” 2009NABDigitalCinemaSummit Dr. Martin Banks, UC Berkeley: “first evidence that a vergence- accommodation conflict can cause fatigue and discomfort.” 1991 2001 Schubin Cafe, IBC 2009
“First Evidence?” “Studies made by Hartridge, Kletzky and others indicate that one of the most common causes of eye-strain consists in an unconscious attempt on the part of the observer to modify the normal coördination of the ocular reflexes of accommodation and convergence.” - Leonard Thompson Troland, Ph.D., The American Journal of Physiological Optics, v. 12, n. 3, p. 381, July 1926 Schubin Cafe, IBC 2009

“The Truth About Stereoscopic Television” Schubin Cafe, IBC 2009
IBC Daily News, September 12 “Conference Today: Wood calls for health warning on 3D television” David Wood, EBU "I plan to concentrate on getting broadcasters to take the issues around eye fatigue seriously," he said. "I want a government health warning on all 3D products and shows, but it won't say that 3D kills like cigarettes do."What this means is that when broadcasters screen 3D content, they should mention up front that there are viewers who cannot fuse left and right images," he added. "Shows should at the very least carry a caution that viewers should not watch 3D for long periods." Schubin Cafe, IBC 2009
