'American Paper Optics' 125 million 3D Super Bowl Glasses!

Post by Silversurfer »

This exclusive deal makes them the official manufacturer for this monumental and unprecedented number of disposable glasses for the nationwide 3-D event to be aired during the Super Bowl l XLIII making it easily one of the biggest media advertising events in history. As we’ve mentioned before this event is to advertise “DreamWorks Animation's movie trailer for its upcoming 3D feature, "Monsters vs. Aliens", a 90 second 3D preview of the animated feature as well as a 60 second 3D commercial for SoBe Lifewater. But don’t throw your glasses away after the Super Bowl as there’ll also be useful for viewing a 3D episode of NBC'**** comedy "Chuck," airing Monday, Feb. 2, 2009 (8-9pm E.T.)

It’s understandable that American Paper Optics, LLC was chosen for such a groundbreaking venture because they have been previously used for other events like the “3D DVD's as the Hannah Montana concert DVD and the recent hit Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D, which helped them reached an epic milestone with their Super Bowl job that has pushed them past the "one billion 3D glasses distributed" mark so far.

Their founder, John Jerit, helped to paint the picture of how big job this was by saying, “This job involved 30 truckloads of 3D glasses that, if stacked end to end, would stretch around the world one and a half times!" Looks like S-3D is getting a massive push in the States which hopefully will rub off on the rest of the world.

That would be nice as it's only 90 seconds ad, but we need to get hold of these free ColorCode 3-D blue and Amber Glasses, which are supposed to be better than the anaglyph? Then we can see this picture in all its glory. :D

By following the instructions in the 3D section here, you’ll be able to get a free pair of ColorCode 3-D Glasses to view the bridesmaids in 3D while waiting for Superbowl XLIII. (photo courtesy of ColorCode 3-D)

Viewing with ColorCode 3D glasses
The easiest way to view the images is with a pair of 3D glasses. You'll get the best effect when you use the ColorCode 3D system. Select the ColorCode viewing method and make sure that the amber filter is in front of the left eye. This type of 3D image is often referred to as the Power Anaglyph and makes an ideal promotion tool for printing or websites.

Another easy way to view the images is with a pair of red/blue 3D glasses. This is the well-known anaglyph. Select the anaglyph method and make sure that the red filter is in front of the left eye. This type of 3D image is very often used for promotion in printing or on websites.
