Samsung BD-C6900 Is First 3D Blu-ray Player To Break Cover At CES 2010

Jan 6 2010, 10:26am CST | by Luigi Lugmayr

3D Blu-ray player are the next big thing. Samsung is supposedly the first company to offer a 3D Blu-ray player. According to German Heise, the Samsung Samsung BD-C6900 appeared on a CES 2010 award list distributed at CES Unveiled.

Samsung has not yet announced the BD-C6900 3D Blu-ray player and no details about features and specifications are available. The BD-C6900 is likely to be a premium player and seems to support DLNA.

End of December the Blu-ray 3D specifications got finalized.

The spec leverages the technology behind Blu-ray to deliver 1080p resolution to each eye. The specifications are not tied to one technology so it will provide the same visual experience on any 3D display regardless of the technology.

The specifications were designed to allow the PS3 to play 3D content and the tech supports playing 2D discs in 3D players and will allow 2D version of 3D films to be played in existing players.

I do not think that Sony or also LG will let Samsung be the only company announcing a 3D Blu-ray player at the CES 2010. Update: The Samsung BD-C6900 Blu-ray player is shipping from Amazon.
