Abstract

Stereoscopic 3D (S3D) has been developed years ago more in the movie industry and the gaming industry. This paper evaluates the benefits versus the adverse effects that it has on people and conclude whether it is worth considering in the gaming industry. To achieve the desired outcome, we are going to review past studies conducted by researchers and then cumulate the solutions that they have given to finally decide on the whether it is worth considering in the industry. The research that was conducted showed that many papers have discussed a specific problem and tested a few hypotheses and eventually came up with a solution. This paper has summarised the previous papers where the solutions were found and then, has chosen the once that upon application can eventually enhance the experience of the viewer. Many of the researchers have discussed about the depth adjustments, parallax errors and quality of experience. Hence suggesting that, these are the most important factors to be focused on if we want to remove the discomforts.
