Next Generation of Holographic Images

suman28 writes "Imagine being able to view an image from all sides and have it interact with you. Scenes or images pop-out at you and change on the fly and are viewable in full color. Best of all, you don't need head-gear or any wearable device to make this possible. They are generated by a computer with two cameras that track your eye movement and there is a transparent LCD screen between you and the display that makes the pictures come alive. Though it may be a while before this becomes part of our daily lives, it is interesting to see what the kind of research being done on this. "

    peek into where the light comes out while it's on...

    ...and never see out of that eye again!

    Flipping moron. Stare into a class IIIb laser for a while. While you're at it, stare at a solar eclipse and do some MIG welding without glasses.

    I am convinced that PhysicsScholar is both a bot and candidate for a Darwin Award.
