LG to Launch 3D TVs in 2009

Category: Gadget News   Published: December 5, 2008

I’m sure you have been to a 3D cinema before, they are pretty cool eh? Now imagine having one of those in your home.

That is what LG is planning to launch next year, a 3D TV. It won’t be the world’s first 3D TV, but that suggests that we are in for another revolution in the way we watch TV in the next year or so with all the major TV manufacturers developing their own 3D TVs.

According to Choon Lee, Vice President Director at the Digital TV Research Lab, LG will be launching at least one 3D TV next year.

“3D TVs are the next big step for us,” said Choon Lee, “We will try with one or two markets in 2009″

Even though he did not specify which market LG will tackle first he added:

“The start may come from home shopping channels. It’s easier to introduce and show off the products in 3D. It’s relatively easy to make content for animation, so comics and shopping will be first. Then it will migrate into soaps and other areas.”

LG is also developing a 3Dmonitor, aimed specifically to advertising, and not for our homes.

As a final quote Mr Choon Lee said:

“Over the next few years we will see lots more 3D”
