AMD readying a demo of the Blu-ray 3D standard

AMD and CyberLink are partnering up to present a live demonstration of “Blu-ray stereoscopic 3D”  at CES 2010, without waiting for any standard to be formalized first.

While the world continues to wait for an announcement on what the 3D Blu-ray standard will actually entail (backwards compatible 2D combo discs, and Full HD stereoscopic technology are definitely on the list) AMD is ready to leverage its position as a contributing member of the Blu-ray Disc Association and make sure that when discs hit the market — likely around the time Avatar is released at home — it has compatible software and hardware available.
