Interesting point about the frame, hardly anybody mentions that. All attempts to introduce 3D television have failed because of it - 3D can never work unless you can get the picture to fill your entire field of vision, it seems strange to me that few people seem to realise that.
3D HAS BEEN kicking around since the early 50's...by '54, it had flamed out...TV hasn't fare much better...the jury is still out..and probably will never be a factor in broadcasting..etc
