On its website, Nintendo announces:"6歳以下の小さなお子様の視覚は発達段階にあると言われており、専門家は、『ニンテンドー3DS』だけでなく、3D映画や3Dテレビなども含め、左右の目に異なる映像を届ける3D映像は、小さなお子様の目の成長に影響を与える可能性があるという見解をもっています。"
Translation: No Nintendo 3DS for kids under 6.
Question: Now what?
Answer: Let's be clear on one point, we live in a 3D world. Kids and babies included. We are programmed to perceive 3D accurately during the first year of our lives. And stereo-acuity actually matures between 3-5 years of age.
The two eyes each receives the same image from a slightly different angle - the same principle used for 3D gadgets. Shouldn't 3D viewing then enhance the performance of the visual system? The common complaint of asthenopia [eyestrain and headaches] from viewing 3D is an entirely different matter. Instead of real research on convergence and fusion, Nintendo mimics 3D TV manufactures by issuing simplistic warnings.
Lest we forget: CYA is not a real solution, real solutions require real R&D.
the multimedia that the eye is exposed to in case of most children is tremendous hazardous and should be safeguarded.Thanks for sharing this information.
