Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Mobile communications company NTT DoCoMo, Inc. has co-developed a portable, seven-inch 3D display system together with Associate Professor Yasuhiro Takagi of Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology.
Acording to NTT DocoMo, both still images and
video can be viewed in 3D without special glasses, and unlike similar
displays, the images are visible off-center vertically, as well as
horizontally.
The system, which enables 3D images to be viewed within a 60-degree
horizontal angle and 30-degree vertical angle, generates the images
based on the viewer's position relative to the screen.
Using a camera embedded in the display's LCD screen, the system
determines where the viewer is and immediately projects 3D images
through a lenticular (single-convex) lens attached to the front of the
screen. This results in the viewer seeing an object that appears to
leap out from the screen.
DoCoMo, which hopes to put the system to practical use for dynamic,
highly realistic games and mobile Internet shopping, will exhibit the
system at its booth at CEATEC JAPAN 2006 from October 3 to
7.
