I think I watched that video a dozen times trying to figure it out. I came across this on the Ramboll site<br><br><em>"This is done through surface mirroring and reflections. The pyramid itself is used as a kind of prism that assembles light from four video projections into a solid image.<br><br>“We simply use physical space to create a three dimensional feeling of reality as though the object was actually present in the space. In future, using this technique physical space itself will create 3D depth,” says Peter Simonsen.</em><br><br>which make it seem similar to that other holographic display that has the spinning mirror, but you can't see anything spinning in this one.JoshThu, 06 Dec 2007 06:55:51 -0000http://www.solidsmack.com/cheoptics-360-free-floating-3d-hologram/2007-12-05/#comment-1287697THAT was cool! Amazing stuff indeed. I wonder exactly how they do the 3D effect with video? Multiple cameras? I don't imagine you can just take regular video and convert, nor video of a cad model spinning around.Bruce BuckThu, 06 Dec 2007 00:32:04 -0000
