LOS ANGELES, March 6, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DDD Inc. (AIM:DDD), the 3D solutions company, has launched the Yabazam 3D movie app for LG 3D Smart TVs.
The Yabazam 3D app streams free 3D movie trailers directly to the viewer's living room from the growing collection of 3D movies available at Yabazam.com. In late March viewers will be able to download full length 3D movies for a pay-per-view fee.
The app became the most popular free LG TV app after its first week of release in mid-February, with over 70,000 content downloads.
The Yabazam 3D app and its 3D content portal, Yabazam.com, provide a library of high quality 3D content beyond the 3D features released by the major studios.
Yabazam was launched in late 2009 and was the first online portal to offer high definition 3D movies. Since then, Yabazam 3D content has become a mainstay feature of many of the latest 3D notebook and personal computers from leading brands. The new 3D app expands Yabazam's reach to a much wider audience that is looking for compelling content to watch on 3D TVs.
"The ability to stream 3D content straight to a 3D Smart TV is a great step for the 3D industry," said Chris Yewdall, CEO of DDD. "LG's 3D PC products include Yabazam 3D movie trailers and we welcome the opportunity to deliver 3D movies to LG's Smart TV customers as well."
DDD is aggressively growing the range of 3D movies available on Yabazam with regular updates. Popular titles include the Safety Geeks SVI series, the Curse of Skull Rock and Rio de Janeiro Carnival.
New releases scheduled include the acclaimed "UYUYUI!", "Come Coco" and "Moving Still" from Timbo Estudio. "UYUYUI!" scored points during 2011 on the international festival circuit, with awards for Best Short Film using synthetic images at the 3D Film Festival in Belgium, Best 3D Short at the Short Shorts Film Festival in Tokyo and the 2nd Place Jury Award at the Los Angeles 3D Movie Festival.
