Viewing Stereoscopic 3D Images

Precautions on Viewing Stereoscopic 3D Images

Before viewing stereoscopic 3D images, please read this section carefully.

WARNING

Under normal conditions, viewing stereoscopic 3D images is safe for any duration that you would normally view your screen. However, some people may experience discomfort. The following precautions are recommended to minimize the potential for experiencing visual problems or any adverse symptoms.

Take regular breaks, at least 5 to 15 minutes after every 30 to 60 minutes of stereoscopic 3D viewing.

* Based on the guidelines issued by the 3D Consortium revised December 10, 2008.

Maintain an appropriate distance from the screen. Viewing from too close a distance can strain your eyes. If you experience eye strain, immediately discontinue viewing.

If you experience any of the following symptoms during viewing:

• nausea, queasiness/dizziness, headache, blurry vision or double vision that lasts longer than few seconds

Do not engage in any potentially hazardous activity (for example, driving a vehicle) until your symptoms have completely gone away. If symptoms persist, discontinue use and do not resume

stereoscopic 3D viewing without discussing your symptoms with a physician.

As you get more comfortable viewing stereoscopic 3D:

Adjust the parallax on the 3D-video playback equipment. (You may not be able to adjust the parallax on some models of equipment.)

Adjust the projected image to the most comfortable viewing size by zooming.

(Projecting images on the smallest or largest screen size possible may eliminate the stereoscopic effect and strain your eyes.)

Use the DLP® Link™ Invert function to properly set the video for your left and right eyes. (For

details on using “DLP® Link™ Invert”, see the section on its operation in this operation manual.)

The following people should limit stereoscopic 3D viewing:

Children under 6 years of age (to protect the eye growth process)

People with a history of photosensitivity

People with heart disease

People in poor health

People who are sleep deprived

People who are physically tired

People under the influence of drugs or alcohol

Epilepsy

A small percentage of the population may experience epileptic seizures when viewing certain types of images that contain flashing patterns of light.

IF YOU OR ANY MEMBER OF YOUR FAMILY HAS A HISTORY OF EPILEPSY

The following people should consult a physician before viewing stereoscopic 3D images.

Anyone with a history of epilepsy, or who has a family member with a history of epilepsy

Children under 6 years of age

Anyone who has ever experienced epileptic seizures or sensory disturbances triggered by flashing light effects

SOME LIGHT PATTERNS MAY INDUCE SEIZURES IN PERSONS WITH NO PRIOR HISTORY OF EPILEPSY

Discontinue use if you experience any of the following symptoms while viewing stereoscopic 3D images.

Involuntary movements, eye or muscle twitching

Muscle cramps

Nausea, dizziness, or queasiness

Convulsions

Disorientation, confusion, or loss of awareness of your surroundings
