Title: Holomagrams. Real ones this time.
Post by: Avatarr on February 11, 2006, 07:12:54 PM: (https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimages.dailytech.com%2Fnimage%2F444_fig1.jpg&hash=eea1d8ff0435739a8d2b5e3d9668eac1c0388bbb)

The Japanese National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) announced an exciting breakthrough in optoelectronics -- a working three dimensional display. The display does not rely on any sort of optical illusion or disorientation. Instead, infrared lasers are aligned to converge and create small amounts of plasma. The plasma acts as a floating "dot" on top of the laser grid.

The infrared laser pulses across several reflectors so that 100 dots can be created per second. The initial reports from AIST are a little light on details, but it appears as though the plasma dots can be drawn up to several meters away from the laser source. It also appears as though the device needs a vapor source with specific electron/ion content in order to generate the dots.

HOLY CRAP! THAT WAS 10 YEARS AGO! I FEEL SO OLD!

Post by: Avatarr on February 12, 2006, 03:39:29 AM: yeah.. the thing with this is, it works by turning ions into plasma that\'s hot enough to shine. if you touch it, you will most likely get a burning sensation.

not that I\'d care too much about touching holograms..
/me hopes no one knows what I\'m talking about

You seem very defensive. Perhaps there is some truth to this gay porn you\'ve been suspected of acting in.
