Toshiba Qosmio F755 3D

 

If I said to you auto-stereoscopic display technology would you know what I was talking about? If not here is a basic explanation; auto-stereoscopy is a process by which stereoscopic images can be made to look 3D without the need to wear 3D glasses or similar viewing devices.

Now the next question is where can you find this technology? Well you can find it in Toshiba’s latest notebook called the Toshiba Qosmio F755. That’s correct; you will be able to view both 2D and 3D movies and images directly on the display screen without having to look silly whilst wearing those chunky glasses. The images are shown on a 15.6-inch screen that utilizes double parallax image display technology. The Toshiba Qosmio F755 features a resolution of 1920 x 1080 in 2D mode, and 1366 x 768 in 3D mode.

The double parallax image display sends two sets of images at the same time splitting it between the left and the right eye. Along with this an advanced webcam detection system determines the user’s position and auto-tunes the image display for the best performance based on the angle and distance of the user to the screen. By displaying both 2D and 3D images, users can watch videos or play games in 3D whilst switching to 2D to surf the internet or do work.

The Toshiba Qosmio F755 features some powerful hardware; this includes 2.0-GHz Intel Core i7-2630QM processor, 6GB RAM expandable to 8GB, Nvidia GeForce GT540M/1GB graphics card, Blue-ray rewritable optical drive, and a 5,400-rpm 750GB hard drive.
