Oakley 3D glasses coming soon

The use of 3D sunglasses in cinemas has prompted HDTV manufacturers like Samsung and Mitsubishi to release 3D-ready displays based upon DLP technology.

One online article explains ‘3D technology these days relies upon more advanced glasses than the red and blue plastic lenses of yesteryear. Modern generations wirelessly sync with the display source and use LCDs to create a stereoscopic 3D effect. Most existing glasses, however, are large, clunky, uncomfortable, and certainly not stylish.’

However, this may be about to change as Luxottica, one of the best manufacturers in the world of premium eyeglasses and sunglasses, have recently partnered with Kerner Optical to produce designer 3D sunglasses

The first products of the joint undertaking will be available next year, in the form of Oakley eyewear which is one of the bestselling brands in the world of sunglasses next to Ray-Ban.

Founder of Kerner Optical, Yuska Siuicki, says, "They are much more comfortable than what is out there now, and the lenses will soon be available in prescription. This space is exploding."
