Philips Cinema 21-9 Platinum Series 3D TV

Philips Cinema 21:9 Platinum Series 3D TV

Philips’ Cinema 21:9 LCD TV was certainly unique. As it was the only telly with a 21:9 aspect ratio, for (rich) people wanting a true in-home cinema experience from a TV it has been the obvious choice.

However, it wasn’t perfect. It used old-school CCFL backlighting, which meant contrast levels and the handling of motion did not match up to Panasonic’s plasmas or even Philips’ own ‘LED Pro’ Direct LED TVs.

How can I watch 3D TV at Home

How can I watch 3D TV at Home?

Creating 3D TV images involves mimicking the way that our eyes work in normal life. As our eyes are about three inches apart, each eye sees
a slightly different perspective of our surroundings and the brain merges these two images together, using the difference to calculate depth.
So, 3D TV recreates this process by showing two slightly different images and using special glasses to separate them.

How 3D Works

 

How 3D Works

How we see in real life

Before you begin to understand how a 3D movie works, you must first understand how your eyes work. In real life, our left and right eye see two separate images that are processed by the brain to see depth, or 3D. To see an example of this, hold your index finger out an arms length in front of you. Now as you’re looking at your finger, alternately close one eye at a time. Your left eye sees a different image than your right eye. Your brain uses a process called stereopsis to translate these two images into depth perception. Watch How Stereopsis Works

Actiontec MI424WR Router Fios Weapon of Choice

Actiontec MI424WR Router Fios Weapon of Choice
 
Actiontec MI424WR Wireless Broadband Router is Fios’s weapon of choice. No, this is not your ordinary router. It is the world’s first broadband gateway that supports multiple WAN, LAN and VoIP interfaces. This is crucial since it provides Verizon Fios with a platform to launch Triple play. Internet, TV and Phone via its New Fiber Optics Network. That is if Verizon chooses to utilize it that way. Looks simple on the outside but the guts perform the magic.
 
ONT (Optical Network terminal)
Notice from the pictures below, the Fios Signal from Verizon’s distribution center flows into the ONT on the outside of your house. Most of it is then converted from Fiber and pumped into the Actiontec MI424WR Router. Although the router acts as a Traffic cop for most of that traffic coming in, its role in directing Video signals is curtailed in the Fios configuration. You will notice if you reset or Turn off the router, your standard TV signal will stay on. That said, the Broadband Router is built to permit digital entertainment and information content to be transmitted and distributed to multiple devices in the home. That is why it is no ordinary router. However, the ONT will soon be upgraded with technology similar to the Broadband Home Router and may (being the key word) be slated to take over some of this roles. Read More about this here.
