Looks like a useful step towards 3D displays.
By stacking a bunch of these transparent panels on top of each other, you could display 3D objects without needing 3D glasses:
----o----- Layer1
---o-o---- Layer2
---o-o---- Layer3
----o----- Layer4
(etc)
The depth resolution would be kind of crap, but there'd probably still be uses for it. Maybe layers wrapped as cylinders?
Pretty sure there's an existing crowd trying something like this a few years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EA2FQXs4dw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EA2FQXs4dw
They're taking a different approach, though using a stack of panels too.
