From Russia with love, the next-generation iPad with 3D video

Apple’s iPad 5 may not be the most revolutionary thing to ever hit the electronics market, but Russian fans certainly hope it will be.

A bunch of industrious people in Russia have created this concept video of the iPad 5 featuring 3D viewing technology, along with dual front-facing cameras for 3D FaceTime.

The display is said to have special pixels, where each dot is divided into two sub-pixels for left and right eye angles. The display would also boast a “revolutionary focusing lens [which] projects pixels to corresponding eyes.”

The design is, unsurprisingly, a direct translation of the iPad mini to the 10-inch form factor of the big iPads.

Apple is expected to unveil this tablet, albeit perhaps without the fancy 3D tech, sometime this spring. At the launch event, Apple could also unveil the second-generation iPad mini with Retina display.
