Soon you won’t need to be James Cameron to make your very own 3D movie.
Most 3D video is shot using expensive equipment and processing software only big movie studios can afford. It’s getting cheaper quickly, though. Last month, LG unveiled its high-end Optimus phone, the first with a glasses-free 3D display and a pair of cameras, allowing video to be captured in 3D.
According to Dunacan Graham-Rowe, a simpler device is being developed in China that will allow regular cellphones to capture and process 3D photos and videos. The prototype, developed by Wallen Mphepo at the Beijing Normal University, takes the form of an attachment that fits over the lens of a mobile phone camera.
