samsung-logoTelevision Viewers will be surely surprised by such a big thing in televisions this year will be 3D Television. Big company like samsung is throwing its rather large manufacturing weight behind 3D in the home, bringing not just TVs but 3D Blu-ray players and home theater systems into stores this year.

Samsung 3D TV is a combination of LEDs, LCDs and even a plasma model.This 3D TV features a proprietary 3D engine that, like Toshiba’s new sets, can convert 2D video to 3D (although Samsung presented this as a temporary solution until more 3D video is available). Samsung 9000-series will come in screen sizes from 19” to 65”. The TVs are as thin as a pencil,. Turn one of these sideways and it all but disappears. Add to that a gorgeous steel body and you get a TV that even an impossibly rich movie mogul will covet.
The 9000 series introduces itself with a large touch-screen remote that enables you to watch live TV on the remote itself while the big screen continues to play your 3D movie.

Samsung is moving on the App Wagon, too, and in the spring there will be a range of free apps (they’re not called applications any more) in its own store, called “Samsung Apps”. The store will be open, so anyone can write software for your TV, and paid content will follow in the summer, followed by software for other platforms such as phones.

Big hollywood name like Dreamworks along with Technicolor, teamed up with Samsung to get some 3D content onto the televisions. Company’s first 3D Blu-ray title, Monsters vs. Aliens. These 3D movies will, he optimistically predicted, “reduce piracy”.
