The Fire Phone uses four front-facing cameras to track the movement of your head and “redraw” the image on the phone’s screen from your new vantage point. According to Bezos, Amazon was working on the technology for four years, with the CEO noting that one camera wasn’t enough to deliver the dynamic perspectives due to the narrow field of view. It might make a good photo op to pretend you’re teetering on the edge of a chasm, but in person, you wouldn’t look down and get vertigo, because your eyes give your brain the depth information to know the image you’re looking at is only four feet away. Think of it like the 3D chalk paintings you sometimes see that depict what looks like some sort of hole in the Earth. Holding the screen and your head completely still, there would appear to be no 3D effect at all the illusion is only generated by shifting perspectives.
Objects on the screen will subtly shift as you move your head, as if they existed at different depths within the phone, but they won’t appear to poke out at you, or have real depth at rest. Call it Dynamic Perspectiveĭuring the event, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos referred to its technology not as 3D, but as “Dynamic Perspective.” It’s a fundamentally different effect from what we’ve seen previous 3D phones produce, like the HTC EVO 3D. As we expected, Amazon is doing things a little differently than the generations of 3D phones that have come before.
