Cheoptics360: The Future is here


I know Engadget already posted something about this, but this is stinking cool and deserves repeating. It seems a Danish team of scientists have put together a 4 sided transparent pyramid that will display 3d images. Now, given the video, I don't see any really convincing proof that they are showing actual 3D images and not just 2d images that you can see form 360*, but if they instituted some kind of angling alogorithim or something into the pyramid that would be cool. Difficult, I'm sure, but if they can make this thing I'm sure coming up with some code is within their capable grasp. Either way, the video is impressive and at least worth a look-see.
