  • Dave Walton of JVC Professional Products demonstrates the company’s new 2D-to-3D conversion workstation.
  • “This is a system that we’ve designed working in conjunction with Twentieth Century Fox to convert titles, movies, primarily for packaged media — high-definition — over to 3D,” he explains.
  • Walton suggests that the advantage of the JVC system has to do with the creation and editing of layers in real-time, which results in the reduction of cost for the conversion process. He explains that in many cases the number of layers can be reduced by a factor of 10 with the JVC system.
  • “The end result is very high quality 3D material from a 2D source that can be used for packaged media, and eventually we intend to migrate this technology where we can actually do a full resolution cinema release,” he says.
