Compelling content is the key to ensuring that 3D Smartphone is more than just a Flash in the Pan and right now there's just not a lot of it floating around. LG Optimus, maker of 3D phone seeks to address this issue with the recent announcement of their new 3D game converter software.
Due to his first demos at IFA in Berlin, LG 2011 new 3D game converter does exactly what its name. After firing up the converter at Optimus 3D, about 50 games will be 3D compatible 2D facelift, while unsupported game OpenGL can be manually optimized to achieve the desired effect.
The game will get quite comprehensive work for, or as LG's 3D evangelist Dr. Henry Nho would have us believe: "LG's 3D game converter automatically recognizes the depth of information based on the location of each object and separates the 2D graphic images for each eye. Using existing information depth, 3D games, the converter creates two different images for the foreground and background. "
LG promised that another 50 titles will support 3D by the end of this year, an important complement to the existing library of 3D content. It's win win for game developers and their clients: devs get no-hassle way to offer 3D functionality, and customers can extend their 3D content library is not free. The converter will come as part of a new maintenance release of Optimus 3D, currently scheduled for release Oct.
To their credit, the LG seems to realize that for all its gimmicky fun 3D Smartphone to live or die depending on the quality of the experience they deliver. Some users will be more that happy to shoot stereoscopic video until they're blue in the face, but that Novelty will typically only last for so long. The announcement adds a bit of the value of the 3D experience by providing more content, but the inevitable question "what is enough?"
The game, one thing, but in order to overcome their status as gimmick, 3D Smartphones should more applications that are designed from the ground up with 3D in mind rather than simply as meditation.
