Odyssey 3D: A Glasses-Free 3D Experience
The Odyssey 3D (G90XF) stands out as the first glasses-free 3D gaming monitor in India. It features a 27-inch 4K (3,840 x 2,160 pixels) display with a 165Hz refresh rate and a 1ms gray-to-gray (GTG) response time. The monitor leverages advanced eye-tracking technology and view mapping algorithms to create immersive 3D visuals without the need for dedicated glasses. The eye-tracking technology uses an in-built stereo camera to monitor the user's eye movement, while the view mapping feature adjusts the image to enhance depth perception. The monitor also boasts an AI-powered video conversion feature that adds depth to 2D videos, further expanding its 3D capabilities. Users can switch between 2D and 3D content based on their preference.
The Odyssey 3D comes with a Reality Hub app that automatically detects content and gives users the option to play it in 3D. It also has AMD FreeSync Premium technology support, spatial audio using in-built stereo speakers, and DisplayPort 1.4 and two HDMI 2.1 ports for connectivity.
