LAS VEGAS -- 3D technology provider Xpand sees 3D becoming ubiquitous.
At CinemaCon, the company launched Xpand Infinity as a flexible new 3D system developed to support almost any screen size, shape and surface -- including large venues. Xpand also showed a clever 3D plug-in for PowerPoint.
The projection system was conceived to handle wide, flat, curved, dome-shaped or even Cinerama format. An unlimited number of Infinity systems can be linked together to operate as a large-scale system. Xpand said it can project onto any type of screen surface.Xpand Introduces New Technology, 3D Glasses at CinemaCon
Users have a choice of regular Xpand active glasses, priced at $35 a pair; Xpand Infinity glasses, at $55; or Xpand Infinity Deluxe 3D, at $75.

Xpand also introduced on Tuesday a 3D plug-in for PowerPoint, aimed at allowing users to add depth to elements in a presentation and embed 3D movies, images, graphics and objects to jazz up PowerPoint presentations.
"We have proven in various case studies that 3D improves viewer retention by more than 30%. 3D PowerPoint presentations are now more interesting and deliver much more impact," Dror said. The plug-in is compatible with MS Office 2010, 32-bit or 64-bit. The 3D content could be viewed on a computer, compatible 3DTV or a video projector that supports HDMI 1.4 3D formats, using Xpand Universal 3D glasses.Xpand Introduces New Technology, 3D Glasses at CinemaCon
