Imagine being able to have a 3D cinema experience without leaving the comfort of your sofa.
With Cinera’s 3D stereoscopic headset, this could become a reality.
The headset, which has dual 2.5K displays, provides an immersive 3D cinema experience without reducing image quality and causing nausea – which can happen when watching movies with traditional 3D glasses at a movie theater.

The headset, which has a Kickstarter campaign, provides a wide field of view of 66 degrees, similar to watching a film in a movie theater.
The headset, which runs on Android, has HDMI, USB and Micro USB inputs to allow for content to be sourced from a range of devices.
It’s also Wi-Fi enabled, allowing users to steam content from the internet.
According to Cinera, to experience 3D, most movie theaters project two distinct images onto the same screen through polarizing filters, and 3D glasses filter out the images so one eye sees only one version.
CINERA HEADSET: FEATURES
Cinera’s 3D stereoscopic headset, which claims to give users a 3D cinema experience, provides an immersive 3D cinema experience without reducing image quality and causing nausea – which can happen when watching movies with traditional 3D glasses at a move theater.
Some of the headsets features include:
- HDMI, USB and Micro USB inputs: Allows for content to be sourced from a range of devices.
- Android and Wi-Fi enabled: This feature allows the user to steam content from the internet.
- Headset or burden-free arm configuration: While the headset has its own headmount, it can also be used with an adjustable ‘arm’ that holds the headset in front of the eyes without weighing down the user’s head.
- Dual 2.5K displays: With 3D glasses in movie theaters, 75 per cent of the light in the image is lost. However, with the Cinera headset, the company claims that its dual-screen system eliminates this problem because each of your eyes has its own individual display panel and light path,and there is no filter and no loss of quality.
- Price: Pledging $449 or more on the headset’s Kickstarter campaign will land you one of the headsets, along with a power-charger, micro-USB arm and burden-free arm.
The device’s ‘Burden Free Arm,’ with its built in pump, allows the user to move the headset to practically any position without a lot of force
But by doing this, 75 per cent of the light in the image is lost, and the images never quite match up, leading to a lose in crispness of the images, and why some people feel nauseous when they watch these movies.
However, Cinera claims that its dual-screen system eliminates this problem because each of your eyes has its own individual display panel and light path, there is no filter and no loss of quality, so the images are brighter, more vivid 3D images.
The headset, which runs on Android, has HDMI, USB and Micro USB inputs to allow for content to be sourced from a range of devices, including games consoles
Most existing headsets use a single screen and split it down the middle into left and right regions.
While the headset has its own headmount, it can also be used with an adjustable ‘arm’ that holds the headset in front of the eyes without weighing down the user’s head.
The device has so far raised $205,193 on Kickstarter – more than four times its initial goal of $50,000. Pledging $449 or more will land you one of the headsets, along with a power-charger, micro-USB arm and burden-free arm
The ‘Burden Free Arm,’ with its built in pump, allows the user to move the headset to practically any position without a lot of force.
However, the headmount, which has an embedded 4-hour battery, is recommended for users who operate First Person View Drones – which means a video camera is mounted on the drone and broadcasts the live video to the pilot on the ground so the pilot feels like they’re flying the aircraft.
