Samsung issues 3D TV warningsSamsung issues 3D TV warnings - they say that viewers are advised to take "frequent breaks" to avoid "motion sickness, perceptual after effects, disorientation, eye strain and decreased postural stability." Children and teenagers should be "closely supervised" as they are more susceptible to the disorienting effects of 3D TV, and "pregnant women, the elderly, sufferers of serious medical conditions, those who are sleep deprived or under the influence of alcohol should avoid utilizing the unit's 3D functionality.". Active-Shutter "flickering" can also trigger epileptic seizures, or, worse, "be physically harmful to you and may weaken your eyesight" if worn when not viewing a 3D image. Hope your eyes don't start to wander! Samsung also advises that you do not place your TV television near open stairwells, cables, balconies, or other objects that can be tripped over, run into, knocked down, broken or fallen over."
