MIT's 6-D Display

Researchers at MIT have recently created “‘6D”’ images which are extraordinarily realistic.

Associate professor at the MIT media lab, Ramesh Raskar, says “Even if you have the best hologram out there, the hologram does not look real.” However, the new system has a comparatively low-resolution laboratory proof-of-concept but could be applied in training and teaching purposes. Raskar also adds, “In training someone how to carry out industrial inspections, an image of the device to be inspected would respond just like a real object when the inspector shines lights on it from different angles, for example.”
