Answer:
Most of today’s 3D-ready HDTVs use active shutter glasses and they will only work for the HDTVs they are intended for. The glasses run on batteries and sync with the HDTV through either an infrared or Bluetooth signal. As a 3D movie/channel is playing, one frame on the screen will display content for the left eye and the other frame will display content for the right eye. Amazingly, within one second, the screen will produce 120 or 240 alternating frames to create a 3D effect.
