You mean Star Wars style? In which case the answer is no, not really. Multiscopic displays have never been properly represented in SF movies, as far as I'm aware. A perfect automultiscopic display would be very much like a window, with the video being able to show any kind of dynamic perspective on the other side of the window. Actually it's more than a window, since elements can give the impression of being in front of the window, but such elements would clip at the edge of the window if the viewer leaned too far out. So the 3D could only be "in-air" as long as the screen is behind it.
- bane 11y agoYeah basically. It may not actually be hanging in the air, but would it more or less look like it? Or would it look more like a 3d TV, a window on the wall that has the appearance of volume, except with this research you can also move around a bit and the object changes as expected?
- sp332 11y agoThe difference with current 3D TVs is that you only get two angles, one for each eye. Everyone who looks at the TV from any angle gets the same two views. With this tech, the view each eye gets depends on where it is physically, so you can move your head around to get a different angle, and multiple people can get different angles all at once. Edit2 (ignore previous edit): Another advantage is that you gain the ability to focus your eyes (each eye) at the correct depth for the object that you're looking at. With 3D TVs, each eye has to focus at the depth of the display all the time. The only depth cue is the angle between your eyes.
