Are you ready to take 3D viewing capabilities to the next level? NVIDIA, a leader in gaming technology, has come up with a way to experience hundreds of PC games in full stereoscopic 3D without having to download special game patches. The GeForce 3D Vision Kit not only transforms games into highly realistic interactive experiences, it also brings this realism to digital photography and videos.

The 3D magic lies in the LCD shutter glasses. These wireless glasses are not the paper 3D glasses, with red and blue lenses, that came in cereal boxes when you were a kid. They are lightweight, stylish and engineered to be used with the latest pure 120 Hz LCDs and DLP HDTVs. With 2x the resolution per eye and ultra-wide viewing angles, you can take advantage of the 15 feet of wireless freedom to roam about as you play, without sacrificing quality. NVIDIA offers an online system check so that with the automatic recognition technology, you can play your favorite DirectX game in minutes.

With over 40 hours of play time in a single charge, you don't have to worry about cutting short a game because you ran out of juice. Even cooler, there's no need to worry about shutting the glasses off when you aren't using them, because the intelligent circuit design automatically shuts them off after ten minutes. If you wear prescription lenses, don't think you won't have the same-eye popping experience as your non-visually impaired friends. NVIDIA boasts that their 3D glasses can be worn over prescription lenses, so that you can still play in amazing stereoscopic 3D. And when you need a break from playing games, you can watch immersive, 3D movies with NVIDIA's Stereoscopic 3D Movie player software. There's nothing extra to buy, since the software is included in your 3D Vision Kit.

NVIDIA, founded in 1993 and based in Santa Clara, California, is known in the gaming community for their cutting edge technology. They invented the term Graphic Processing Unit (GPU), also referred to as a Visual Processing Unit (VPU), and dominate the market for high-performance graphics processors. A GPU is a graphics rendering device that is integrated into your computer, game console or mobile device and produces graphic images superior to that of just a video card. NVIDIA's GeForce products have received accolades for their ultra-realistic games and the clarity of photos and video playback.

The GeForce 3D Vision Kit costs $199.00 plus shipping and is available for purchase from NVIDIA.com and other online retailers. The GeForce 3D Vision Kit is powered by NVIDIA's GeForce GPUs and supports graphics technologies that include NVIDIA SLI technology, NVIDIA PhysX and DirectX 10. The Kit includes one pair of GeForce 3D Vision active shutter glasses with storage pouch, adjustable nose pieces, and microfiber cleaning cloth; GeForce 3D Vision USB controller/IR emitter; Custom 5' VESA stereo to 2.5 mm stereo audio plug cable; 10' DVI to HDMI cable; 10' USB 2.0 type A to 5-pin mini-B cable; 6' recharge cable (USB Type A to 5-pin mini Type B); Quick start guide; and installation CD.
