One of the more interesting tech that we saw at the de\mo room of Acer here at CES 2023 was the SpatialLabs Edition of their Predator Helios 300 gaming laptop, a first of its kind to offer stereoscopic 3D display. It was first introduced back in May 2022 along with the ConceptD notebook.

The laptop is basically the same configuration as the Predator Helios 300 but this model comes with special software and two stereo cameras fit with image sensors constantly track the position and movement of your eyes and head. Using machine-learning models, fully automatic conversion of 2D into 3D in real-time is possible.
The effect is a 3D visualization of the game you are playing without the need of a 3D glasses. The display has multiple layers or panels that adjust the image based on the position, distance and eyesight of the user, thereby giving a realistic 3D effect that does not strain the eyes.
Acer has been developing this technology for over 3 years and has partnered with game developers and software makers in order to enable the 3D effect.
The SpatialLabs technology opens up a lot of potential in various industries outside gaming — modeling, architecture, medicine, real estate, design, and many more.
There are some limitations though. The user needs to be in the middle of the display with a slightly narrow viewing angle in order for the 3D to be effective. It also does not work with multiple users (i.e., more than 1 user watching at the same time) as the cameras can only track one set of eyes and adjust the picture/image to that viewer. The good thing is that it is very easy to switch between 3D and 2D versions of the game.
In order to make the transition easier for consumers, upgrading to the SpatialLabs Edition can be as easy and quick as getting just an external display (just like this Acer SpatialLabs View Monitor) that you can just readily hook up to your existing laptop or desktop setup.
