YouTube partners with LG Mobile 3D Videos

YouTube is working with LG Electronics to make it easier for users to capture 3D images and videos on mobile devices and load directly over the Internet with the new LG smartphone 3D Optimus.

Optimus 3D, that uses the Android mobile OS, Google has a double lens for capturing video and 3D images. Videos can be uploaded directly to YouTube through a dedicated YouTube videos 3D application, said a spokesman Nanako Kato, LG.

4.3 inch touchscreen Optimus 3D also allows users to view images in 3D, and video without the use of glasses.

"The new partnership is part of a broader push into 3D entertainment from LG and online video community in the world", the company said in a joint statement. "YouTube and LG partnered to allow delivery and sharing of 3D video on mobile devices in a way that makes it simple and easy for consumers."

YouTube has started to provide a place for 3D video in July 2009 in the 3D Gallery of YouTube and also sells special 3D glasses on the site.

Partnering with LG takes mobile 3D video, making it easily loadable and easy to share.

LG Optimus armed with a 1 GHz 3D OMAP4 dual core processor from Texas Instruments, Dual-Channel memory so that users have enough power to work on 3D video on the laptop. People can share 3D videos and images through a range of wired and wireless connectors, including HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface). Additionally, DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) certified network.

Screen without 3D glasses on 3D Optimus was made with a parallax barrier technology applied, that raises a number of slots on the front of the LCD screen that block the light in a way that ensures a user left and right eye see different images, creating the illusion of depth of the 3D image.

LG Optimus Pad tablet also has a built-in 3D camera, but its 8.9-inch touchscreen is not made for viewing 3D without glasses. Pictures and videos taken with your camera, 3D can be observed on 3D TVs or shared on the Web via YouTube 3D, LG said.
