14 DAY TRIAL // One of the major obstacles faced by 3D in its way towards world domination are those uncomfortable glasses that have to be worn during watching movies or playing a game, so LG partnered with Alain Mikli in order to provide users with the ultimate in 3D eyewear offering unprecedented comfort and style.
Well renowned for its streamlined creations, Alain Mikli's evewear is a favorite among fashion conscious users, his company running a collection of flagship boutiques around the world in cities such as New York, Paris and Milan, attracting high class customers everywhere.
And although this is his first foray into 3D eyewear design, that hasn't stopped LG from proclaiming these are some of the most comfortable 3D glasses around, this being made up from select metals that maintain the optimum weight ratio for the front and back of the glasses.
In addition, a special nose pad, which Mikli and LG have co-patented, provides a snug fit around the bridge of the nose, spring hinged arms with extra-long tips ensuring the glasses will fit perfectly around the sides of the viewer’s head.
“Numerous studies have shown that of all the challenges facing 3D technology acceptance, the glasses always rank near the top,” said Havis Kwon, President of LG Electronics Home Entertainment Company.
“The fact is, 3D viewing glasses don’t have to be ugly and uncomfortable. We’ve just proven that with Monsieur Mikli’s help in creating what are probably the best, most stylish 3D glasses in the world.”
Stylish these may indeed be, but doesn't change the fact that the whole 3D business is blown out of proportion nowadays thanks to those greedy media companies that want to get a quick buck without having to work that much for it.
Moving back to LG's and Mikli's glasses, these are to be showcased at CES 2011 in January, following to be available worldwide with LG’s 2011 future premium 3D TVs.
