Difference between a regular HD TV and a 3D TV?

On a technical front, what is the difference between a regular HD TV, and a 3D TV? Does it just have a faster refresh rate, or is there more to it? †X€NØNN†: I'm looking for a technical answer. How is the technology in the TV different?

1. Hd just means high definition. its 2D but its very clear now 3D TV's are different, they project a credible illusion of 3 dimensionality, it looks as if the image comes out of the screen ( you know like when 3D movies where invented at an imax or the sort and they showed peoples reactions) the newer ones (that don't require glasses) even more so in terms of offering the appearance of 3 dimensionality it between TV's and holograms since its not actually 3D ..
2. A 3DTV set knows how to process the single side-by-side 3D images in the frame buffer, into full width images with alternating images at the screen refresh rate (120 hz likely), and transmit a signal for the shutter glasses. A regular HDTV just refreshes the image at 60, 120, or 240 hz from the frame buffer. Both type of TVs "Load" the frame buffer form a 24 to 60 Hz frame rate of the video signal going into the TV.
