Japan mobile phone goes 3D


Image

Wooo Hooo


The company whose name sounds
like a sneeze, Hitachi have built a phone with a 3D display with an even dafter
name.

The Wooo H001 costs $510 and has a tiny button that says "3D" below the
keyboard. If you push it, and the screen's image will appear three-dimensional,
seeming to protrude slightly from the 3.1-inch liquid crystal display.

By
sending a slightly different image to each eye, the 3D cell phone creates the
illusion of 3D, almost like a miniature hologram.  You don't need dippy glasses
to see the image but you have to be holding it at a particular angle.

There
are no plans to flog the gizmo outside Japan so no one will know what a daft
name it has.
