Razor3D's 'Virtual FX' Adds 3D Special Effects to Movies and Games

July 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Razor3D (www.razor3d.com), a leader in 3D and virtual reality entertainment products, today announced the release of Virtual FX, a television set-top box that converts any standard 2D video into real stereographic 3D, instantly and in real-time. The Virtual FX adds digital effects to any type of video from any video source including VHS, DVD, game consoles and digital camcorders.

The Virtual FX is the latest in a new generation of consumer electronics products based on high power digital computing engines designed specifically for video applications. Working with any video source, Virtual FX connects to various video game platforms such as Nintendo, PlayStation and X-Box, and to any CRT-based television. The instant converter receives and then analyzes standard 2D video by computing over 90 million complex image calculations per second. It then adds depth of field characteristics to every frame.

"This is the ideal product for video entertainment enthusiasts who want to take their films or games to the next dimension," said Ryan Oto, Marketing Director of Razor3D. "Movies, console games, sports, wildlife shows and home videos take on an added dimension and look more realistic."

Based on a Phillips digital video processor that provides frame analysis capabilities, viewers are able to manipulate their own 3D experience by optimizing the 3D effect based on image type. Several variations of the 3D effect can be selected by choosing the various program types such as parallel shifting, motion offset, image tilt, and grid stretching. When viewed wearing the electronic LCD glasses included with the product, a TV or gaming device is instantly transformed into a true 3D viewing event.

"There is nothing else like Virtual FX available to consumers," added Oto. "Virtual FX, with its sophisticated technology and impressive images, is a significant step on 3D's march to becoming a truly mainstream consumer experience."
