A Minority Report Style Display System, The AirSho
from the the-future-is-coming dept
Roland Piquepaille writes "In its latest issue, CIO Magazine looks at Hitachi's new AirSho imaging system which "projects dynamic pictures onto nearly invisible glass surfaces, such as a storefront window," a la Minority Report style. "The system displays full-motion images -- generated by a PC or DVD player -- that give the illusion of appearing out of nowhere. It uses a floor- or ceiling-mounted projector that shines video onto a photopolymer-resinous Plexiglas display. The 40- or 60-inch diagonal screen sticks to the window's surface with water -- like a decal." Cross posted from my site. For more information, you can also visit the Hitachi's AirSho Display System page."
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
