Japan’s 1980s 3D Videodisc system - 3D VHD

25 years before 3D Blu-ray, some enthusiasts in Japan were watching 3D movies in their homes courtesy of the 3D VHD system. Better late than never I’m going to try it out. CORRECTION/CLARIFICATION Regarding the way the disc stores the 3D - as mentioned it’s two frames per rotation made up of four fields, what I neglected to mention though was that the interlaced fields probably (most likely?) alternate for each eye. So that would be left eye field 1, right eye field 1, left eye field 2, right eye field 2. I know almost no one will read this, but for that one person who does and who gives a hoot,…Hi, I hope you have a great day. MERCHANDISE New Techmoan Merchandise is now available.

A) Patrons usually have early access to videos. I’ll show the first version of a video on Patreon and often the feedback I get results in a video going through further revisions to improve it. e.g. Fix audio issues, clarify points, add extra footage or cut extraneous things out. The video that goes live on youtube is the final version. If you want to see the videos early and before any adverts are added, you can sign up to Patreon here:
