So today comes the news that technology giant Sharp are to release a 3D smartphone by the end of the year. And guess what? You won't need to wear the paper glasses! Although this will not be the first 3D mobile to grace Japanese shores (Hitachi released one there just last year), Sharp plans to take the new technology global.
It's not surprising that Sharp would be the first company to tread into smartphone 3D territory. As well as releasing a 3D Camcorder, they are the core supplier of the screens that will adorn the hugely anticipated Nintendo 3DS. Both the 3DS and 3D smartphone will also include a 3D camera, leading the way into a world of 3D photography.
The interesting part will be to see who will be supplying the 3D phone's software. Could we see Android 3D? That would surely put the pressure on Apple's iOS system after recent reports that Google's smartphone software is steadily, but surely, catching up the Cupertino company's crown jewel. Imagine those SMS messages popping out of the screen. Cool concept, eh?
