As a researcher in the domain, I’m well aware of the media industry moving to 3D content, and – like with every new technology – the hype it creates. What puzzles me is the 3D hype with many other products.
On my way to work I sometimes see a car advertising this 3D Fitness Studio – it might be just my ignorance, but I’ve never seen a flat one, all were perfectly immersive 3D! (and yes, their website takes ages to load)
Googling reveals they are not the only ones, there are a few all over the world. OK, this one offers pole dancing classes, which may be related to depth and volume perception …
And yesterday I saw a TV ad for 3D shower gel and deodorants …
What’s next? And when can we expect the 2D retro hype?
