Toshiba is displaying a very cool prototype for a glasses-free 3D laptop that converts from 2D on the fly. The unit features facial tracking software that operates through the screen-mounted camera to ensure that if a user shifts position the 3D sweet spot follows (so no “dead zones”).

The 3D laptop technology is being demonstrated on a custom-built Toshiba Qosmio laptop.

The 3D was crisp, with lots of depth detail in gorgeous 1080p on an expansive 15.6-inch LED backlit LCD display. It’s expected to be available in the US market within a year, according to Toshiba, which already has an active shutter laptop (sold with NVIDIA glasses) that converts 2D to 3D.
