If there is one common theme for this year’s 2011, it is the advancement of 3D technology, and JVC is determined to not be left behind in what is fast becoming the next step for all visual technology– like it or not.

Today at CES JVC officially announced its newest product, a handheld camcorder that records in HD quality 3D video. The GS-TD1 features 1920×1080 HD 3D video, 10.6 megapixel pictures, a 3.5 inch 3D playback display that does not require glasses, and a 64 GB built in slot card.

JVC also announced that all of their handheld devices will now record in HD as well, but the 3D camcorder is the crown jewel of its new lineup. Check out the video below for a closer look, and look for the camera in late Spring.

Look out! 3D TVs could be poised to make a surprising comeback

A promotional image showing a child and two adults having their hair blown pack by the power of a 3D TV image.

A decade ago, long before 4K and HDR were even specks on the horizon -- and OLED was still a crazy-expensive and rare option -- 3D TV was the biggest thing to hit consumer TVs since the move to HD-capable flat panels. If you had attended the Consumer Electronics Show between 2007 and 2014, you would have seen row after row and booth after booth jammed with 3D TVs, 3D Blu-ray players, and hordes of attendees wearing 3D glasses to experience the wonder of simulated depth.

But then, with little fanfare, the 3D revolution came to an end in 2016. Samsung was one of the first companies to stop making 3D TVs, and now you won't find a single new model that supports the technology. So was 3D TV just a fad? A gimmick that was destined to fail? Perhaps, but a new holographic 3D technology may be about to give the format a second (third?) life, by addressing many of the previous generation's shortcomings.
