Interactive Three-Dimensional Display System

Abstract

An interactive display system may be provided that allows a user to interact with three-dimensional projected images that have been formed in mid-air. Display structures may be used to display a primary image. The display structures may include structures for creating a three-dimensional image such as a laser projection system that creates a three-dimensional image in a non-linear crystal or a three-dimensional display based on a rotating two-dimensional display or other three-dimensional display equipment. An optical system based on parabolic mirrors or lenses may be used to project the three-dimensional image that has been formed on the display structures into mid-air. A user may interact with the projected image. Sensors may use trilateration techniques to monitor the user's interactions. The projected image may be updated based on the user's interactions, thereby allowing the user to control and manipulate the projected image in mid-air.
