    Interesting. My question, though, is if the display really has those ugly looking black lines everywhere, or if that’s just an artifact of filming it?

    I agree with the Keck, cmon, whats with the crappy lines? I understand the tech may not be perfected yet, but its not exactly nessecery tech, the hologram light thing is a few feet away, so you need more space than a standard crt, and a lot more room than an LCD

    Its just projecting an image onto fibres by the looks of things.. doesnt exactly break technological barriers, even if they try n make it look like it does.

    star trek and other prgrams make holograms sound easy enough, but to actually get light to travel to a spot and then stop and start shining at that one spot is particulary hard ( and i think its impossible so far without something like glass or string or a hell load of magnets)

    I sent you a link a while back to REAL holography with a laser that materialized plasma pixels in 3D space. Pitty you didn’t post it

    Yeah here’s my entire e-mail to Scott:

    http://www.pinktentacle.com/2006/02/aist-develops-3d-image-projector/

    The national institute of advanced technology has developed a laser
    projector that creates images in mid air by making a little explosion with
    lasers. Do this 100 times a second and you’ve got a 3D object in front of
    you. Just don’t touch ;P
    Personally I think it’s taken long enough for them to develop it and now
    it’s finally here. It just doesn’t feel like the 21st century without
    holograms.
