For several months, people of YouTube has remained a feature in beta that allows those who carry a video to the site, turning it into 3D with just a few clicks. Now, the function has abandoned its test status, and begin to be available to all users automatically. This could give important boost adoption of 3D among users, but the questions remain the same: How much is needed to obtain an acceptable experience, and how many are willing to wear 3D glasses at the computer.
One of the main problems affecting YouTube is its inconsistency . There are days when a video 720p seems light as a cloud, while others can barely get a decent streaming 360p. Of course, this is not exclusively the fault of YouTube as the provider may be making the rounds, but it is worth some caution in deploying high-level functions based on these problems, as in this case, the dynamically and automatically converting 3D for videos . This function was introduced in September last year and since then have transformed hundreds of thousands of 3D video according to YouTube.
Now, the function is available for videos uploaded in 1080 . Once the 3D version is online, the option to activate the tools of the YouTube player (click on the gear) . The process uses various features such as color videos, the spatial and momentum, while other references available ("machine learning") present in what YouTube calls "real 3D videos" . To this is added a great deal of cloud computing, dividing the videos into smaller pieces and process them in parallel on the Google servers. What you need to watch 3D videos on YouTube ? First, and without intending to drown in the obvious, a pair of glasses , no matter how passive or active. It is assumed that more sophisticated solutions with the Nvidia 3D Vision promises a superior experience, but the fact is that YouTube offers several settings to adjust the 3D mode to the type of device you use, including a stereoscopic option without glasses (you'll need a screen 3D appropriate for that) . The 3D conversion function spent nearly seven months in beta, a clear indication that YouTube has been improving and optimizing the process and any extra option to be delivered to users (for more automated that is) that load content to the site is certainly welcome. Personally, I'm not sure how practical is the 3D YouTube user in the short term, but anticipated to have a support can be a definite benefit later if the technology gains traction.
