3D Goggle[2] (3D ゴーグル), known in the United States as 3-D Goggles, and often advertised as 3-D Goggle, is a Pioneer LaserActive active shutter 3D glasses peripheral developed and published by Pioneer.

Hardware

The hardware uses a shutter system to close the left and right lens rapidly to create a 3D effect. A disadvantage is that it halves the effective frame-rate, which some users can perceive as flicker. It also tends to be incompatible with cathode-ray tube televisions.

Additionally, the hardware is cross-compatible with the Sega Master System's 3-D Glasses peripheral, which utilize identical technology, and can also be used with any 1/8" connection to view three dimensional media.[3]
