Default 3D Television in a sphere

I was looking for something else, and stumbled across this....

quote:The award-winning Perspecta Spatial 3D System includes a 20-inch dome displaying full-color and -motion images that occupy a volume in space, giving users a 360° god's-eye view - without goggles. Perspecta is plug-and-play, rendering all movement from widely used open-standard 3D applications.

Anyway, I thought it was interesting, albeit pricey.

I was looking for an article that I had read a while back about a new 3D television that doesn't use a screen, but instead uses an ionized stream of air. It looked like something right out of StarWars when they were looking at the layouts of the Death Star. Any info, please post a link.

Wow, that's really cool.

Every classroom should have one of those.. especially when learning about DNA. When I was in 8th grade we broke up into teams and constructed 5' tall DNA models out of wire and ping-pong balls. That sort of hands on learning sticks with you.

Here is your DNA strand:



I can't find it now, but I read somewhere they are in the $40K range. I think sticks, balls and tinkertoys will remain the standard until the price drops.

You're thinking of Heliodisplay:

Projects upon an ionized stream of air.
