I’ve just seen that Firebox have an exclusive product which it very exciting.  For only £49.95 you could own the world’s first and only commercially available 3D webcam.  Check it out in the pictures below, it’s called the Minoru 3D Webcam.

Strange name – Minoru – which after a quick google search you’ll find out that in Japanese Minoru is “reality”.  I’ll sure you agree that it’s not just the name that is strange.  It’s a damn odd, if not ugly looking gadget.  The daft looks are from its 2 eyes which are in fact dual cameras.

These cameras are the technical brilliance of the Minoru, which enables it to create the 3 dimensional images.  The images are only seen in 3D if you are wearing some of the 3D glasses.  You know the sort I mean, the 1 red eye, 1 blue eye cardboard type from those old movies!!  I love them, and they are already making a comeback in the modern movies too!

The Minoru also has the ability to be a normal bog-standard, the world is flat, 2D webcam.  But seriously, once I’ve tried this, I doubt I’ll ever want to hold a conversation in the future on Skype, Windows Live Messenger, Google Chat or the good old original AOL Instant Messenger again without using it.  The Minoru is compatible with all these programs!  So lets all chat away in 3D!

The webcam itself is powered by a USB cable and can also be used for taking 3D photos and 3D videos!! The videos can then be uploaded to Youtube…  Hmmm, I wonder if there is a market for creating a 3D-only Youtube-like website?  I may just go do that, before YOU do!
