Miranda Technologies Licenses RealD Format

Miranda Technologies recently announced that it has licensed the stereoscopic RealD Format, from ReadD Inc, to broaden the conversion capabilities of its Densité 3DX-3901 stereoscopic 3D signal processor module.

“By adding RealD Format conversion to our 3DX-3901, the processor now offers the full breadth of stereoscopic 3D conversion capabilities”, said Jean-Marc d’Anjou, Vice-President Infrastructure at Miranda. “It can now interface between all the common 3D formats, and thereby simplify the transition to 3DTV playout using an existing HD infrastructure”.

The Densité 3DX-3901 provides high quality conversion of multiple 3D formats, including Dual Link 3Gbps/1.5Gbps and Single Link 3Gbps/1.5Gbps, with RealD encoding. It features a single 3Gbps/HD input and dual 3Gbps/HD outputs; this allows previewing of conversion effects, as well as 3D/2D simulcasting.

The processor also offers horizontal and vertical flip, interaxial adjustment, and Horizontal Image Translation for adjustments to depth positioning, and for simulating a 3D landscape from a 2D scene. The monitoring output offers anaglyph, Difference-Disparity, and left/right eye display.

The RealD Format is a patented version of a side-by-side 3D formatting technology.  It utilizes a unique set of filters and other technology to multiplex left eye and right eye 3D image streams into a single channel for delivery of high-definition progressive or interlaced 3D video using today’s HD infrastructure, including existing HD set-top boxes and DVRs, to any 3D-enabled display type. The side-by-side format was recently named in HDMI Specification Version 1.4a as a mandatory format for the transmission of 3D content between devices.
