Demonstrated at Siggraph "The display consists of a high-speed video projector, a spinning mirror covered by a holographic diffuser, and FPGA circuitry to decode specially rendered DVI video signals. The display uses a standard programmable graphics card to render over 5,000 images per second of interactive 3D graphics, projecting 360-degree views with 1.25 degree separation up to 20 updates per second".

Seeing that in real life at SIGGRAPH gave me a headache pretty quickly, unfortunately. It strobed a lot. I don't know if the projector was too slow or if the mirror speed was slightly off or irregular. But it's a very good idea.

Disappointed nobody stuck their hand into the middle of the display to show how "interactive" it is.

This isn't a hologram in the technical sense of the word, "3D projected image" would be more accurate...

Pointless quibbles aside, this is pretty cool tech. I was wondering how the hell you can get a "standard" graphics card to render at 5,000 fps, until I noticed that the bit depth was 1. If I just turn my settings down to 2 colours, I need never buy another graphics card again!

what confuses me is that when you see four rectangles, they are colored.

so, at least in that frame, bit depth is at least 2 (I don't think there were more than 4 colors)
