"Plastics Help Bring 3D Movies to Your Living Room"
Advancements made possible by plastics are translating the 3D magic to DVD and Blu-Ray™ and bringing it into the living room.Since the first 3D movie in 1915, children and adults have been captivated by the mystery of creating three—dimensions from two, but the technology is based simply on our brain’s way of viewing and interpreting the world. Since our eyes are approximately two inches apart, they see the world from two slightly different perspectives. Our brain pieces the two images together to form a three-dimensional image.
Although the technology varies, 3D theatrical movies generally magnify the two inch distance between our eyes by showing the same film in two hues from slightly different positions. When viewed through special “glasses” (actually plastic: the old red and blue plastic lenses or the more up-to-date polarizing plastic lenses), images that otherwise look like a colorful blur suddenly “pop” from the screen.
