Electronics giant Sony has entered the 3D laptop market, unveiling the latest in its line of Vaio F Series computers.
The impressive piece of kit, expected to retail for around £1,800, makes Sony the latest in the number of manufacturers to push the 3D market.
Just as with Sony Bravia's 3D TVs, users will need 'Active Shutter' glasses in order to see images in 3D.The new laptops will use Intel core processors and users will also be able to watch 2D on the 16in screen at the flick of a switch.
They should be on sale by the end of this month and Sony hopes to be able to challenge Apple which will update its range later this week.
Industry insiders have said, however, that Apple is not going to make use of 3D technology.
The Vaio F is being seen as Sony's flagship entertainment model with a discrete graphics engine.Sony said that, 'in contrast with passive polarised 3D screens, the Vaio F Series uses advanced frame sequential panel technology and LED backlit control.
'This sophisticated technique ensures sharper, brighter images with a super-fast response time and wide viewing angle.
'Frame Sequential technology alternately displays Full HD (1920 x 1080) 3D images for left and right eyes at up to an extra-smooth 240fps frame refresh rate.
'From action movies to sports, games and more, you'll be rewarded with a more relaxed 3D experience, even after extended viewing periods.'
