3D television without the need for glasses.

I don't believe this has been posted here. I did a few searches and came up empty so here it is.

Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories has a prototype for a 3D television with no need for glasses.
3D TV: A scalable system for real-time acquisition, transmission and autostereoscopic display of dynamic scenes.
I've seen different approaches and this one is very interesting.

i've seen this a while ago.
A nice lab toy but totally impossible to use in the current state.

yeah saw this a while ago- it's cool but totally impractical at this point.

Why is this more interesting then other lenticular multi view approaches? The basic approach is the same:
lots of pixels > lots of views > nice tracking-less freedom of movement.
This demonstrator, however nicely built, is not feasible as a product. There are many lenticulars that are, and that are available even.

By the way, nice quote on the top of the page :)

Cool, but who's gonna be able to afford 16 projectors?

Sorry everyone already saw it. I would imagine if anything did come of this you wouldn't have 16 separate projectors but a single retail box of projectors. Maybe 16 or more with some special lens or multiple lenses and the screen. I could also imagine this type of technologies being adopted into some kind of rear projection 3DTV similar to the old RGB rear projection TVs.

First: never worry about news being posted twice. Twice is still better than never. It seems similar to Holographika's approach. http://www.holografika.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
