The Toshiba dynabook Qosmio T851/D8CR, announced on Wednesday, not only lets you view 3D without glasses, it can also display 2D–at the exact same time–in another window on the 15.6-inch screen. This multi-dimensional viewing is a first in laptop technology, and works by sending separate images to each eye, as well as facial tracking via the webcam.
Besides letting users multi-task in different dimensions, the Qosmio T851 will feature a second-generation Core i5-2410M processor, Nvidia GeForce GT540M, Blu-ray player, a 750GB hard drive, harman/kardon speakers, and up to 8GB of RAM.
There’s no word on pricing yet, but shipping will begin first in Japan in late July. Stay tuned for whether watching 2D and 3D at the same time is multimedia magic or miss.
