Hasta La Gadget!

Sharp Corporation has unveiled a 3D camera module for mobile devices that could capture high-definition 720p 3D video images.

To do this, a 3D camera requires peripheral circuitry that applies image processing between two images, taken with two cameras that capture images simultaneously for the right and left eyes. This is bit of a trick to pull off for something that can squeeze into a four ounce cell phone, but that appears to be what Sharp has accomplished here.

The company said it will begin shipping samples in July, and will begin mass production later in 2010.

Last month, Sharp Corporation announced it was also working on 3D-capable cell phone displays that won’t require special 3D glasses in order to view properly. (via FierceMobileContent)
