3DMedia Corporation unveiled software that will convert two nearly overlapping digital pictures into a well-rendered 3D image.  The Windows software retails for $99 (Mac, Linux versions are in development).

3DMedia hopes that its ViewFusion technology can be licensed to a variety of 3D products, including: HDTVs, phones, cameras and digital picture frames.

“Although it is expected that 2010 will be the year of wide adoption of consumer 3D display devices, there is currently very limited 3D content available for consumers to enjoy in their homes,” said Tassos Markas, president and CEO of 3DMedia.  “The basic premise of our technology is to solve the problem of content generation by enabling consumers to create and enjoy their own personal 3D content on all types of 3D monitors.”

Resolution can be 4K or below and the consumer must have a 3D display.  This is a good example of a product category that we expect will have many offerings in the near future.
