8. polarizer and glasses Passive 3D brightness to the eyes will be about 2 0x if compared with the same projector used in active shutter 3D system 2 Incorrect aspect ratio adjustment of signal source may cause abnormal 3D display when the 3D format is Side by Side or Top Bottom 3 Pair the glasses and polarizer is required If viewer wears 3D glasses and sees the light from lamp through one polarizer via RH eye with different side direction and angle viewer will see below conditions If RH eye can see through the polarizer at any side direction and angle then this polarizer is not for RH eye ll If viewer can t see through or only see minor light at some angle or direction then it can be for RH eye projector The side faced to the eye should be pointed out to the screen and the polarizer should be installed at the same angle as viewer sees minimum light through 4 It is recommended to use only digital signal for input and output ports to avoid any issue due to image shift in VGA auto alignment 5 If 83D setting in Blue Ray is not correct GeoBox will not be detected and 3D signal can t be delivered to GeoBox Please set Blue Ray at auto 3D or 10800 24Hz frame packing 6 There are many kinds of 3D polarization system with different polarizing angles or directions User needs to check whether the glasses can match exactly with polarizer being used for the projectors 7 Please note that head tilting and different viewing angles will aff
9. 3D video quality A projector with higher native resolution output brightness and contrast ratio will yield better performance similar to Movie Theater 3 The output light from a projector with 3x LCD micro display such as Epson or LCOS JVC or Sony may preserve polarization and the polarizer and glasses need to be carefully selected Linear polarized system can be used in most of Epson 3x LCD projectors Optical spectrum type filter and glasses can be an alternative in this case DLP type projector is easier in polarizer and glasses selection 4 The projector with throw ratio under 0 8 is not recommended because it will be more sensitive to the flatness of the screen and create difficulty in image alignment The throw ratio should be above 1 1 if spectrum filter is used to avoid degrading of the 3D contrast ratio 5 DLP projector for business purpose may use different color wheel for higher brightness but downgrade the color performance Please select video projector with HDMI or DVI input for home theater application 6 For use in public area the projectors with higher brightness should be considered Projector with more than 3 000 lumens will be acceptable in limited ambient light presence More than 4 000 lumens will create better 3D effect Projector with full HD resolution and above 1 800 lumens will be recommended for home theater Other Important Tips for passive 3D display 1 The final brightness to the eyes will be reduced due to 3D
