The New Scientist has reported on a breakthrough in 3D collaborative technology demonstrated at the SIGGRAPH computer graphics and animation conference held in LA in July.
French visual simulation company Immersion, demonstrated an interactive 3D table-top display which can be operated by two users at once from opposite sides of the table.
The system uses
polarised 3D glasses and an
active shutter 3D system
to alternate the images required
by each user to
provide them with the appropriate
image of the table’s
content.The following video, produced by
New Scientist, explains the concept.
