One of the big surprises of this CES 2023 was not the original product, but a much-needed upgrade to the existing product, the Acer SpatialLabs TrueGame 3D Ultra mode. The new 3D Ultra Mode is an updated version of the original glasses-free Acer SpatialLabs TrueGame, which uses stereoscopic 3D technology to create a 3D effect for him, allowing both eyes to move when he is sitting in front of a monitor or screen. Center.
The result is amazing as the 3D effect is almost perfect. I demoed it in Kena: Bridge of Spirits while I had ultra mode in hand, trying to control the main character with the effect of a full blast. It creates an out-of-focus effect. It is a luxurious experience that can only be experienced while sitting in front of the screen.
The most vivid way to describe how the main character pops off the screen is that it most closely resembles the 3D effect of a diorama. The way the background is a 2D field that is flattened against the back of the diorama display, with humans and other featured objects made to stand out from it. The effect added new depth and complexity to an already visually gorgeous game to enjoy it, and made a strong case for how this technology can enhance a game.
price and availability
3D Ultra Mode software will be released in January 2023 as a free update to SpatialLabs TrueGame. However, to take advantage of the software, you must purchase hardware that supports the technology. His three main products are the SpatialLabs View ASV15-1B widescreen LCD monitor, the ConceptD 7 SpatialLabs Edition 3D laptop, and the Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition laptop.
Currently available models of LCD monitors cost $1,099.99 (approximately £910 / AU$1,600), single ConceptD 7 laptop models cost $3,499.99 (approximately £2,894 / AU$5,087), Helios 300 laptops Models currently has no models. Now on sale.
Availability of these products in the US is already very limited, and availability in other regions such as the UK and Australia is even worse. Justified given the level of technology, this technology is still out of reach for the average consumer.
design
The 3D Ultra mode itself has been redesigned and uses an eye-tracking solution, stereoscopic 3D display and real-time scene rendering technology for even greater effect. It’s really impressive how something as simple as this technology translates into beautiful effects.
Of course, such technology can only run on equipment that supports it. Currently, his three offerings are the SpatialLabs View ASV15-1B widescreen LCD monitor, the ConceptD 7 SpatialLabs Edition 3D laptop, and the Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition laptop. The monitor and laptop designs are pretty standard, and all three models boast some pretty original looks and color choices. However, they are solidly built, handle 3D technology well, and the displays themselves are bright and crisp.
performance
There are noticeable differences between the original version of Acer SpatialLabs TrueGame and the new 3D Ultra mode with the addition of a second virtual camera. The latter improves on the former’s already impressive effect, creating the illusion that the game’s protagonist is popping off the screen.
And that’s an effect that’s only noticeable when the sensors are all focused on you, aligned with your eye position, and shaped to best suit your perception. Attempting to capture this effect proved impossible, as it produced a strange, ripple-like appearance, which is not uncommon when the is insufficient. The phrase is certainly cliché, but when it comes to 3D Ultra mode, the question is whether you actually believe it.
This technology isn’t perfect. If you’re not in the “sweet spot” of the sensor, the 3D effect can be wavy or out of focus, and your character’s limbs can be double his. For 3D sensitive users, these issues can cause brief periods of disorientation until the sensor or player readjusts.
The specs of the two laptop models are also impressive, with powerful components capable of running Acer’s proud AAA and AA games such as God of War, Kena: Bridge of Spirits, Octopath Traveler, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, and Psychonauts. I have it. 2.
early verdict
Seeing how much this 3D technology has improved so far in such a short time is impressive to say the least. 3D Ultra Mode provides a strong foundation for why this technology enhances your gaming experience and, more importantly, how it can enhance your gaming experience.
As the world seemed more enveloping your senses, it created a new level of immersion in the beloved title and breathed new life into it. I felt it changed the environment and the way I approached the puzzles. Imagine how immersive you can be in combat with a game like God of War.
And while there are still issues to be worked out, it’s exciting to see 3D in games moving in a direction where so many areas are already covered.
