I'm not sure how active 3d works, but from my understanding: the tv shows a frame which is meant for the right eye and the glasses block the left eye from seeing it and then vice-versa. Why wouldn't it work? Does this mean that active 3d glasses and passive 3d glasses both require the same type of television? If so, what's the point of active if it's more expensive?TonyD said:No.The tv and the content displayed on it have to be 3D and the 3D tv needs to be active not passive.
The first question most people ask about a 3D setup is "Can I save money and only buy ONE of the three pieces?"Charles Smith said:I have to admit curiosity as to the genesis of the question.
Passive is half vertical resolution and you will also see dark lines visible in the image, just to be fair some people see flicker with active glasses, i do not, flicker is visible if you have any lights on and in your field of view with active shutter glasses.retaeht said:I'm not sure how active 3d works, but from my understanding: the tv shows a frame which is meant for the right eye and the glasses block the left eye from seeing it and then vice-versa.
