New Hologram Tech

by Josh Rubin

Hitachi (Japan) announced that it has developed a holographic-like display called the Transpost, which allows 360 degree viewing of an object rendered in light without wearing any special glasses. The whole set up is about 6 feet tall and is reportedly being developed for use in shop displays and games. Transpost uses a combination of mirrors and light to create the image.
