Is their a standard for DLP/HD 3D?
There is a standard created by Texas Instruments for all OEMs who license their DLP technology. Samsung & Mitsubishi are acting as OEMs of this technology through their DLP HDTV products. However, there is no general industry standard for HDTV 3D. Standards usually imply a consortium of industry leaders coming together and agreeing on specific implementations and that has yet to happen with 3D. Although not equipped with Texas Instruments components, Samsung has extended the same 3D technique (apparently adhering to DLP 3D compatibility without violating Texas Instruments patents) to their 120hz Plasma line. As of this writing, the 3D input port found on all 3D equipped DLP and Plasma displays is identical and not vendor specific and the 3D LCD shutter glasses that connect to this input are also universal. So while there is currently no industry standard for this technology, the Texas Instruments DLP 120hz-60hz split ‘checkerboard’ technique has grown in popularity among vendors and ha
