Spartial View (r) offers with Wazabee 3Dee autostereoscopic (no glasses needed) Displays for a low price. A 19″ 3-D LCD Display cost “only” 740 Euro.
This 3-D Display makes it possible to distinguish real depth in a LCD display without the use of tools such as special 3-D glasses.

Fujifilm brought out a new prototype of the FinePix Real 3D System Stereoscopic Camera. The new prototype is looking a little more designed. It has two 10 megapixel sensors and stereosound. It might be available in September 2009 for a price around 600 USD.

Autostereoscopic Mulitview Displays with Full HD resolution are offered by Tridelity (R). They offer autostereoscopic Displays from 24″ till 57″.

Creating a depthmap out of two stereoscopic 3D pictures is possible with software like Stereo Works 1.0. It is avaiable at http://www.lycosoftware.com/SW/Sw.html#Download for free. The results are quite good - even they are still not perfect.
As well Triaxes (r) offers with Stereo Tracer “Professional” a Stereo and 2D plus Depth to 3D Converter. This software is designed for rendering multi-view images out of one picture and a depth map and can create a disparity image or Z-image out of two stereoscopic images. The software might be the best on the market at this moment, but the depthimages are still not perfect. Demo is for free and worth a try. Automatic rendering a depth map from a stereo pair to download from Triaxes.com : http://www.triaxes.com/index.php?id=59
This might be interesting for creating disparity images too: http://www.shawnlankton.com/2008/04/stereo-vision-update-with-new-code/
Time of Flight sensors in 3-D Cameras allows to capture a high resolution depth video with only one camera. The sensor is sending IR signals and measures the time of flight of the reflected signal so a desired depth range can be captured exclusively.
In the future this technology can become more important. It can be used for capturing the depht with one lens 3-D cameras, for creating lenticular 3d pictures out of only one photo and a depth map and to be used as an interface between human and computer.
