    Then we will all die because of our cellphones and bluetooth headsets devices ... :?

    Unless very serious studies backup this statement, I think that this is a very desperate way of selling their products ...

    And if it's true then I am f/$%% :lol:

    I tested anodized aluminium sheet sample... as in description, it is also non reflective, ideally smooth structure – ok for 2D, but doesn't work for 3D – it doesn't preserve enough polarisation. I guess, not all anodized aluminium sheets can be used as 3D screens. It would be very useful, if you could write in your first post ...manufacturer or shop, where you bought your anodized aluminium screen-sheet.

    I`ve tested lots of different types of metal sheets and prblem was always the same - reflective light from projector. Anodized surface on aluminium prevent from it. I never noticed any difference betweene boards of metal in case of Stereo3D (depth, other quality).
    Only problem i had was with Circular Polarization. LCD screens from my projectors been mixing colors through those filters and i had purple color in some areas.
    Please check on the other metal to be sure that you got 3D at all. Play with filters, turn them each way. Maybe you did that - so i`m just guessing.
