This Samsung monitor turns a flat screen into a 3D experience without glasses

The Samsung Odyssey 3D gaming monitor introduces technology that tracks users eye movements to create a glasses-free 3D experience.

The monitor is aimed squarely at gamers, looking to engage an audience with immersive 3D tech that doesn’t involve unwieldy VR headsets. The technology works by combining a lenticular lens that directs different images into separate eyes and view mapping that continuously adjusts the depth perception for the viewer. An eye-tracking camera aids in allowing the software to understand what visuals need to change for the altered perception. The monitor includes a one-millisecond response time and high refresh rates for a smooth player experience, as well as a height-adjusting stand for ergonomics and the best 3D view. The screen can switch seamlessly between 2D and 3D modes.

This gaming system is unlike others currently available on the market, attracting gamers and streamers who have been apprehensive about making the switch to 3D gaming – largely due to the cumbersome and unsociable appearance of VR headsets. Its debut at Gamescom 2024 drew attention from popular streamers and became a must-visit attraction at the conference. With many fans anticipating its arrival, the Odyssey 3D is set for a global release within a year.
