Yeah, well, Nvidia realizes you don’t either, and as a result, it’s pulling support for 3D Vision, its platform for gaming with 3D glasses.[/quote]

In a recent presentation I did for the Canadian Association of Instructional Designers, What is Old is New Again: Patterns in Ed Tech and Pedagogy, I mentioned 3D TVs for consumer use with about the brevity they seem to have deserved. Given the poor consumer reception to this tech, it’s a good thing schools haven’t dumped a whole pile of money into purchasing the glasses and developing learning objects specific to the Nvidia hardware.
