Just heard a Grad student at Syracuse accidently found out that if you cross your blue wire to your red connector (located at the back of your HDTV) and your red one to your blue connector..then wear one of those cheap pair of 3-D glasses (the one with a blue lense and a red lense on the opposite side)...You can simulate 3-D on almost any HDTV channel.
How It Works:
3D works by tricking our brains into thinking each eye is watching the same image from a slightly different angle. When you see a 3D movie in the theaters, the process is simple. Just plop on the cheap plastic glasses and try not to plow through the popcorn too quickly. But those glasses only work with special 3D-enabled projectors and movie screens. Your home TV doesn't have these filters and lenses, and so it needs to use a bit more technical trickery to enable each of your eyes to see a different image. To do this, it uses what are called shutter glasses. The TV's image is refreshed 120 times per second. These glasses have lenses that effectively split the image between each eye by "shuttering" open and closed 60 times per secondfast enough that you can't tell what's going on. This flickering is tuned so that each eye is open at alternating times, receiving completely different images from the same screen and resulting in the 3D effect.
