3D televisions, without the need for glasses, already exist in the labs and should be out within 5 years.

What is interesting is that television sets are already going beyond 1080p. The first 4k televisions are on the marketplace, for only $30 grand :), but that price will drop quickly.

What is also potentially available and being tested is qled television. Instead of millions of pixelations, we are talking billions of pixelations, with each pixel having the capability of showing the complete visible light spectrum.

The quantity of things that “should be out in 5 years” for the last 30 or 40 years is epic (cure for cancer, viable solar power, half a dozen replacements for gas). Until it’s actually out I never believe them. One of the big problems all the no glasses 3D has is view angle, in the average American living room most people don’t sit in the sweet spot, so the 3D has to look good on a wide range. Most of the glassed 3D doesn’t look good in a wide range. Meanwhile the market is showing people just aren’t that into it, 3D does OK in theaters but not great, and in TV sales was dead until they turned into a “standard” feature, now people get it and don’t use it.
