Minoru 3D Webcam Comes To Life
Posted in: Today's Chili
Remember the cute Wall-E robot-esque 3D webcam that was just a prototype two months ago?
It is ready to have its first public showing at the Consumer Electronics Association show later this week and start retailing on Amazon.com.
The attractive red webcam, Minoru, requires special 3D glasses to view the
feed from two cameras spaced roughly the same distance apart as the
human eye. Images from the two cameras are mixed together to create the
3D effect.
Minoru will be available from Amazon.com for $90.
Created by British designer David Holder, the 3D webcam can stand or sit on a desk, or perch on a monitor. Each order comes with five pairs of special colored glasses.
It can take still pictures, record 3D video for
YouTube and can also be used as a regular 2D webcam.
