The BBC have announced that they will show the men's 100m final at the London Olympics in 3D as part of a summer experiment to test the public appetite for the new broadcast technology. The 3D coverage will be broadcast via the BBC HD channel.
Roger Mosey, the BBC executive in charge of the corporation's London 2012 coverage, said on Wednesday that the 100m final, parts of the opening and closing ceremonies and a nightly highlights package will be broadcast in 3D this summer.
With several months to go, you have plenty of time to go out and buy some 3D glasses.......although I'm kind of guessing that the vast majority of people just couldn't be bothered...2D will do just fine.
I think you're right John. Most people will stick with the 2D. But if you do want the 3D then you'll need more than the glasses. You'll need a 3D enabled Set op Box and a 3D TV too! All to watch Mr Bolt false start in 3D! ;-)
