Enhanced Education
CESNET is Czech Republic’s National Research and Education Network operator, which recently hosted a medical congress for more than 150 people. Prostate and ENT surgery was performed at a hospital using the DaVinci robot, equipped with a full HD 3D camera.
Conference attendees could watch the surgery in real-time at a remote location, in full HD and 3D stereoscopic mode, with the ability to listen and ask questions. This is a great way to enhance the learning experience and adding depth (pun intended) to a medical congress, which is normally done in 2D and ends with death by PowerPoint.

A 3D Future
I am not negative towards 3D. In fact, I am quite positive. A fantastic opportunity has been handed to the pro A/V industry. Done properly, 3D can be the start of a long, lasting relationship between consumers and pro A/V.
