CO. ROSCOMMON, IRELAND (JUNE, 2010) – RealView Innovations, an emerging optical technology company, will launch its Deep Screen accessory screen for widescreens televisions and monitors at E3 which offers the video gamers a more immersive, multi-dimensional gaming experience.

The most significant aspect of this technology is that no glasses or special software are required. It is ready-to-use with any existing content like video games and movies.
The search for home-based 3D is at fever pitch in the world of consumer electronics. However, thus far it mostly amounts to a lot of talk with no current, workable solutions. RealView Innovations’ patented Depth-Enhancing Technology is the only viable alternative to the global search for a user-friendly, multi-dimensional viewing experience. And the Deep Screen is incredibly easy to apply by simply attaching it to the front of any size-compatible monitor or TV.
