Named after Star Wars gimmicky visual effect of Princess Leia, mobile phones might soon be able to project a holographic effect on their displays. According to the description of how the technology works, the LED shoots the light at 64 different directions. It layers images on top of each other, much like a CT Scan and the optical effect is something that is 3D. I imagine, when displays get high enough frame rates with more efficient power consumption, then this thing will become the norm. Now, the question is, how would you prepare a image for 3D holographic display? You’d have to prepare every layer or model the image in 3D. Not real efficient use of time for average user. But this stuff would be awesome for medical field and possible video gaming.
