148M 3D Mobile Devices by 2015

[Excerpt from MarketNews.ca]

Today, there are two 3D-enabled mobile phones on the market in North America: the LG Optimus 3D, and the HTC Evo 3D. But that number is expected to reach 148 million, counting all types of mobile devices, by 2015.

In addition to smartphones, which may arguably be just a small piece of the pie, 3D-enabled mobile devices will include things like notebook PCs, tablets, and handheld gaming consoles. According to In-Stat, by 2015, nearly 30% of all handheld gaming consoles will be 3D. By next year, notebook PCs are poised to become the first 3D-enabled mobile device to reach one-million units. And 18% of all tablets will be 3D-enabled by 2014.

3D implementation on mobile devices is still in its infancy, and expected to continue to evolve as imaging sensors and processing systems continue to improve.

Some key companies already involved in autostereoscopy mobile technology include Nintendo, Fuji, GoPro, Sony, ViewSonic, LG, Toshiba, Fujitsu, HP, Asus, Lenovo, Dell, HTC, and Sharp.
