Apple has Patented a 3D Holographic Screen

According to Apple?s patent recently published by The United States Patent and Trademark Office, this technology could, if implemented, demonstrate the device holder the most realistic visualization of the 3-dimensional virtual world, and will as well allow to interact with it using various gestures.

The project named the “Interactive three-dimensional display system” will provide the facility, as mentioned above, to not only visually perceive the 3D-image, but also to touch it. According to the technical documentation, this patent describes nothing more than a holographic projection.

The incorporated optical system of the “Air Display” will require the use of the parabolic mirrors or lenses, which are the essential workpieces for projection. An infrared laser system with built-in sensors that can recognize and store some of your gestures to follow your further instructions for updating the image will be responsible for the hologram creation.

Such interaction with the projected images provides a mechanism for human tactile control and takes us to the new stage of interactivity, allowing the viewer to rotate, scale, and control 3D-objects created with the laser system. Thanks to its innovative screen you will be able to see the pictures hovering in the air without any special glasses.

Apple itself is not the first company in the world to fall into a muse about the implementation of such 3D-holograms. In 2011, a Microsoft Research project named Vermeer allowed to recreate an optical illusion that the audience saw in the form of a spatial model. The concept was brought to life by means of parabolic mirrors and the projector light, thus the simulated objects also enjoyed interactivity responding to certain movements.
