Is nvidia 3d vision 2 glasses active or passive.
I was thinking of buying a new 3d tv and i thought i may as well get glasses that are similar to the nvidia vision 2 glasses cos they work well for me. So i am wondering if they are active or passive.

It's unfortunate that nvidia 3d glasses are proprietary. Would be great to use them on all active TV types. Shame there's no standard yet.

I'm playing witcher 2 and I honestly can't tell the difference between active/passive. MY glasses just ran out of power. Could something be wrong with them? Im still seeing 3d just fine with them off. I have a vg278h and the glasses that came with and the first geforce titan. Also I just found this guide http://www.nvidia.com/content/3dvision/docs/3DVISION_TipsTricks_Dec08_Screen.pdf it says the resolution needs to be 1680x1050 for 120hz lcds. Is this still the case or is that for the old 3d vision glasses?

Don't understand how they can be off and you're still seeing 3D. It's just impossible the way it works. The monitor alternates between the left and right frame, and if the glasses aren't blocking in sync with it, you'd have double vision of the image.

Active is the best. I have a 144 monitor and a 32" LG passive. I just use a mod monitor.inf that tells Nvidia its a passive Acer monitor. Works flawless.

Take a photo through the lens? If the glasses were off, you'd be seeing a double image.
