It looks like Toshiba is testing the consumer, autostereoscopic TV market in Japan. I'm anxious to see how it works out. I've been creating videos for autostereoscopic displays for about 2 years now and closely following the industry. The technology is truly amazing and definitely attracts people to watch it, but I'm not sure how long people will want to watch it. I've sat on my couch and watched my 42" LCD for hours upon hours - now we're going to find out if people will watch an autostereoscopic TV for that long.

James Cameron Discusses 2D to 3D Conversion
March 25th, 2010
Converting existing 2D content (CGI 3D in 2D or Real-Life 2D) to stereoscopic or autostereoscopic viewable formats poses some issues that James Cameron discusses.
Basically, he is saying that if you are converting a 2D video into 3D, you will get the pop-out book effect - unless you go through a very slow, painstaking process. He goes on to say that the best way to achieve true-3D is to film in stereoscopic or to create the CGI 3D with true-3D viewing in mind.
