There are a number of LCD televisions which support 3D content in 2010. The price of these televisions has come down in price, while they once £3000 and above, the most recent models cost in the region of £855-£1850. These televisions usually require shutter glasses, which are explained below.

The 3D technology works, in layman's terms, by providing a different image for each eye. There are a number of techniques used to achieve this 3D effect. One of which, is to provide two images, one of top of the other, which display a different perspective of the same object. When combined with shutter glasses, it builds a stereoscopic image (3D).

Without the shutter glasses, the picture would just appear blurred to the natural eye. The 3D technologies can be separated into those which require shutter glasses and those which do not. The techniques which use shutter glasses are anaglyphic, polarisation, and alternate frame sequence. The auto-stereoscopic technique does not require glasses.

The glasses-free auto-stereoscopic 3D televisions are (2010) more expensive than those which do require shutter glasses. Auto-stereoscopic TVs are sometimes referred to as "Full HD 3DTVs". While there are a handful of Bluray discs which contain 3D content in 2010, Hollywood studios are planning to release over ten 3D movies in 2011.
