Abstract

The present invention relates to three-dimensional glasses, to a three-dimensional image display apparatus, and to a method for driving the three-dimensional glasses and the three-dimensional image display apparatus. The present invention is a method for driving three-dimensional glasses for watching a three-dimensional image consisting of a left-eye image and a right-eye image, wherein the method comprises the following steps: transmitting glasses characteristic information, including information relating to the opening/closing speed of shutters of a left-eye lens unit and a right-eye lens unit of the three-dimensional glasses, to an external three-dimensional image display apparatus for outputting the three-dimensional image; receiving synchronization information, including information relating to the output periods of the left-eye image and right-eye image, from the three-dimensional image display apparatus; and synchronizing, using the synchronization information, the opening/closing periods of the shutters of the left-eye lens unit and the right-eye lens unit with the output periods of the left-eye image and right-eye image outputted by the three-dimensional image display appa…
