Sony KDL55HX800 Innovations

Brought to you from the makers of professional electronics equipment, to the creators of 3D films and animated games, Sony is leading every stage of the 3D revolution. The leveraging of its advanced technologies and overwhelming engineering expertise, in the leading-edgeSony BRAVIA KDL-55HX800 3D HDTVs, is creating an incredibly realistic, at-home viewing experience with video images so realistic, you feel like you've stepped directly into the action.

Now you can experience heart-pumping, ultra-realistic 3D movie action, all from the comfort of your very own home theater. From the moment you put on the 3D active glasses until the closing production credits, you're transported into the depths of a wonderous 3D world void of any limits on your newly expanded imagination.

The evolution of 3D has also reached the world of television, sports and video games. The availability of 3D Blu-ray movies and 3D video game titles is rapidly increasing, and ESPN has already committed to 3D broadcasts of many upcoming major sporting events including the BCS National Championship, Summer X Games and a long list of high-profile professional and scolastic football and basketball games.


So, let's take a quick view at how all of this new technology actually functions, when you add that important new third dimension:

We'll begin first with the basics. Since our eyes are spaced apart, each eye sees things at slightly different angles. Our brains then combine the two angles, giving us true depth perception. Making it possible to create that same sense of distance and realism on a TV screen, 3D technology displays high speed synchronized left and right eye images, delivering the most realistic 3D experience imaginable. And, since each frame you see is shown at Full HD resolution, the 3D action comes alive with razor-sharp detail.

Oh yeah, it's an awesome view.

You just put on the 3D Active Shutter Glasses and watch as images seem to leap right out of the screen of the Sony BRAVIA KDL-55HX800 3D HDTV and into your home theater. Sporting high-speed synching with 3D images and an ultra-high contrast ratio, these glasses greatly reduce unwanted "ghosting" effects known as crosstalk. Adjustable and comfortable, they are designed with side panels to block out excess light that creates the annoying glare that you typically experience with other types of glasses. And, yes, they will absolutely fit over top of your required prescription eyewear, so there's no concern over using your vision correction lenses. They also feature extended life batteries that can hold a functional charge for up to 100 hours.

Consequently, from the lens to your living room, Sony is there. In fact, 3D truly does begin and end with Sony. Movies are shot with Sony cameras, distributed by Sony, and enjoyed on Sony products. So, go ahead and explore the reasons why Sony is your end-to-end 3D solution. No longer just a dream, 3D TV is finally here and we've shown you why there's nobody who can bring it home like Sony. Now, go ahead and immerse yourself in the ultimate Full HD wide screen experience with the new Sony BRAVIA KDL55HX800 3D HDTVs.
