Displays Move into 3D
by Andrew McCaskey
by Andrew McCaskey
The military grade display in today’s video may be a taste of the expansion in capability that will move into consumer electronics in the next few years. It’s instructive to note that the applications in the video have been carefuly chosen to emphasize sweet spots along the way.
Medical imaging, gaming (in both the consumer sense and the Casino mode) and trading are all venues where the slightest advantage can, for a time , turn into a real advantage.
The drawback, though will be on the software side of the application – how will developers be able to code for these output devices, and what are their incentives to do so, other than for individualized niche markets ?
The iPhone has already proven the viability of interactive screens. Adding displays in 3D may bring the gypsy’s crystal ball even closer.
I’ll be on the lookout at CES and report.
