TOSHIBA has launched in Japan what it calls the world's first television that allows viewers to see 3D images without wearing special glasses, amid intensifying competition.
Curious shoppers stopped to test the screen at an electronics store in central Tokyo as the 12-inch model of Regza GL1 Series went on sale.
The new model with a liquid crystal display carries a price tag of ¥119,800 ($1440). A 20-inch model will be released this weekend.
The new 3D TV does not require users to wear special glasses, whereas other 3D-capable models require glasses that act as filters to separate images between each eye to create the illusion of depth.
More illusion within illusions....
