World’s first 3D display revealed

By Usayd

The world’s first interactive 3D display has been developed by IO2 Technology.

HelioDisplay creates 3D displays in the air using lasers, drawing input from computers, TVs and DVDs. It also allows interactive applications to be controlled by a finger, instead of a mouse.

"Our first generation version, the Heliodisplay, projects TV, streaming video and computer images into free space, (mid-air)", the company’s website claims.

While it’s early days for such technologies, the company has just completed its first production unit and claims it is ready to release a limited number of units for sale.

 Minority report!? Well whatever but this is a step into the future and it is really…quite cool emoticon I must say that these things have all been ‘predicted’ or what have you so really its nothing to be surprised about. I’m sure many many people would already think that such things already exist! Its funny the companies website got overloaded by visitors after this report that it can’t be accessed (at least not when I tried!).
