Stereoscopic vision display FTW
Posted on Aug 13, 07 11:00 PM PDT
This stereoscopic vision display that was showcased at the recently concluded SIGGRAPH 2007 conference could eventually oust traditional projectors with 3D images, just like how R2-D2 beamed Princess Leia's message in Star Wars three decades ago, except that this is now possible in real life instead of remaining inside the realm of science fiction. This display weighs a mere 1kg and uses the modern Zoetrope approach that relies on a single image being multiplied many times over by an array of a dozen mirrors. Kudos to Hitachi for working on this - hopefully it will be further developed so that gaming will be able to make the traditional TV model obsolete as we get involved in full 3D images in real-time instead.
