The Odyssey 3D, a new 4K gaming monitor that is said to deliver immersive, glasses-free 3D gaming with its several special technologies, including eye tracking and view mapping, is available to try at the Samsung booth during this week’s Gamescom 2024 event ahead of its official release, Samsung has announced. The new monitor, which will be available in 27- and 37-inch sizes, is being showcased alongside the Odyssey OLED G8, Odyssey Neo G9, and Odyssey G9, the latter of which features a 49-inch screen with 1000R curvature.
Samsung writes:
- “The Odyssey 3D’s innovative light field display (LFD) technology creates lifelike 3D images from 2D content by using a lenticular lens on the front panel.”
- “Combined with Eye Tracking and View Mapping technology, Odyssey 3D ensures an optimized 3D experience without the need for separate 3D glasses.”
- “Eye Tracking monitors the movement of both eyes using a built-in stereo camera, while View Mapping continuously adjusts the image to enhance depth perception.”
- “The Odyssey 3D can seamlessly switch between 2D and 3D modes based on the user’s preference. Offered in 27′ and 37′ sizes, it features a 4K resolution display, a rapid 1ms gray-to-gray(GTG) response time, and a high refresh rate of 165Hz, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted gameplay without any afterimages or interruptions.”
