The Massachusetts’s Institute of Technology, who have provided gaming with all kinds of innovations over the years, are currently concluding the development of a holographic display.
Previous holographic viewers have been slow and flickery and housed in enormous casings, but the new device, called the Mark III, has the resolution of an analogue TV and is of a practical size for home entertainment use.
As well as being useful for product design, and a more helpful way of viewing medical scans, the technology will allow the complex 3D models already built into games to be viewed as they are.
If the Mark III is released as a consumer product it should be around 200 dollars in price, and will be compatible with all consoles and game-capable PCs.
An in depth explanation of the research is available at MIT’s Technology Review, for those who understand light diffraction and other complex scientific principles.
