• Typical red and blue lens paper glasses were used
• Could be used on newer home TVs and movie screens
• lowest 3D quality
• Two images are displayed on the
screen, one in blue one in red
• The two different colored lenses
allows only one images to each eye
• Then, your brain puts them
together
• Has low quality because since
colors are used to project images,
the actual color picture gets
distorted
How do they work?
3. The Present…

• Glasses no longer use the red and blue
lenses
• There is more resemblance to goggles
• Preferred method of 3D because it allows
color films
How do they work?
• Two synchronized projects project
an image onto the screen, each
with a different polarization
• The glasses allow only one type of
polarization in each eye and your
brain buts the images together
