Star Trek HoloDeck 1.0 — HoloVizio 3D Makes Its Debut
June 10, 2008 | Source: Scientific Blogging
Researchers with the EU-funded COHERENT project have developed the HoloVizio, a 3-D screen that can present realistic, animated 3-D images simultaneously to an unlimited number of freely moving viewers.
Viewers can walk around the screen in a wide field of view, seeing the objects and shadows moving continuously as in the normal perspective. It is even possible to look behind the objects; hidden details appear, while others disappear.
Uses include 3-D anatomical models, collaborative automotive design, and oil exploration.
