However, there is another approach to displaying images that’s much more substantial.
What Is a Volumetric Display?
A volumetric display creates images with apparent volume.
In other words, it’s not just a flat image on the surface of a screen.
It’s a representation of actual volume.
This is why volumetric displays don’t have pixels, instead they have “voxels” orvolumetrix pixels.
With a volumetric display, a 3D object appears to have size and shape.
Which is less common than you might think.
This particular display is a swept-volume design created by James Brown, a Weta Workshop graphics engineer.
There are plenty of uses in fields like science, engineering, and medicine.
Video games and a whole new way of making movies are just two possibilities.
