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)
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.
WOW!
just
plain….
WOW…
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?
Meh…Sega’s Time Traveler beats that anyday.

im guessin its either smoke or lots of hairs that they project light onto
..help me ben…

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
do u still have that link at all ( could always pst it here)
Yeah here’s my entire e-mail to Scott:
