"Demystifying the Future of the Screen" explores the creation of a 3D representation of volumetric display (essentially a technology that doesn’t yet exist) using current technologies. It investigates the conceptual possibilities and technical challenges of prototyping a future, speculative, technology with currently available materials.
Volumetric display (VD) is a graphical display device that produces three dimensional objects in mid-air, unlike traditional devices like televisions, movie screens, and cell phones, that simulate depth in two dimensions.
"Demystifying the Future of the Screen" explores the creation of a 3D representation of volumetric display (essentially a technology that doesn’t yet exist) using current technologies. It investigates the conceptual possibilities and technical challenges of prototyping a future, speculative, technology with currently available materials.
Cultural precedents, technical antecedents, economic challenges, and industry adaptation, all contribute to this thesis. It pedals back to the past to examine the probable widespread integration of this future technology. The fabricated prototype simulates a volumetric display experience and creates an immersive 3D optical illusive experience using only 2D technology, with the use of a holographic display fan and projection mapping.
