According to this article, we are about five years from seeing a early-stage holographic 3D display. This would be accomplished by rapidly moving a series of still hologram images, creating the illusion of depth and movement.

A new line of 3D televisions by Philips, sold under the WOWvx brand, uses very small lenses placed over the millions of red, blue and green pixels that make up the television screen. The lenses cause each individual pixel to project light at one of a series of nine angles projecting from the display.

Mitsubishi is positioning itself to be one of the clear leaders in the next generation of televisions. In addition to the promising technology offered by its soon to be released Laser TV*, Mitsubishi is also developing its own line of 3D TV. “Similar to HDTV, the introduction of 3D TV can proceed gradually, with one 3D channel at first and more to follow, depending on market demand. Our initial system demonstrated that 3D TV offers a richer, more immersive experience than regular TV. It increases entertainment value and realism without the encumbrance of special glasses. Recent work has centered on improving the quality of the experience further.” – Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories
